Hi Kenneth:

I tried:
list.files(path="c:\\pctexv4\\samples")

and that worked just fine.

Hope this helps!

 For windows, how can I list only the folders in some folder?
 I was thinking that dir() and file.info() with isdir==TRUE being something
 that might work.

 These folders or directories are numerically named with no dot extension
 names or other characters.  Typically, these are 3132, 3334, ...

 Here is what I tried.  The last line is where I need more work.

 pData="C:/Myfiles/R/Data/"
 setwd (pData)
 x <- dir(pData, all.files=F)
 y <- file.info(x, x$isdir==T)

 TIA
