Hi ListX Gurus,

Any chance of giving me some pointers with my latest ListX challenge.

This is the scenario. I've setup a website for a MotoX Club (www.cmxcentre.co.uk)
The guys riding bikes are assessed by trainers and their results are put onto a pdf file that will be uploaded to a directory on the website.
The pdf file has a naming pattern as per the following....
[UserName] followed by [DisciplineID].pdf
eg. 136801.pdf 1368 is the username and 01 is the DisciplineID
The guys typically might be assessed on at least 3 disciplines eg. MotoX(01), Trials(02), Enduro(03)

I would like the riders to search on their UserName, FirstName or LastName.
The search to produce a list of riders (I've got this bit working thanks to the replies from my previous posts)

This is the area I now need help on....
When a user clicks a listed rider I'd like a list of their pdf links to appear in a separate listX module below the search module.

I need to iterate the pdf directory to find all instances of pdf files that has the selected users name as part of the first 4 characters of the file name and construct links from the files found.

You can see a dummy assessment here http://www.data-flow.co.uk/Portals/0/Assessments/1452_14.pdf

This sort of stuff is childs play in VB, I'd love to be able to do this sort of stuff with ListX

Thanks in advance for your replies,
