Thank You

Is this in any way having to do with this thread [ame=http://www.vbforums.com/showthread.php?t=565919]VS 2008 Files in Listbox - VBForums[/ame] on a different forum?

If so, you're not going to be able to just delete a file like that if the extensions are taken off when stored in the list, you'd need to create a way to store both, the full file path and name plus just the name which is shown in the listbox.

I'm only asking to be sure I (and anyone else) gives you better advice.

Well its just going to be one kind of extention which is .txt so isn't there a way to like say

"c:\" & sFiles & ".txt" something like that?

or a way to store the full path and file and extention in like a variable

Use the SelectedValue, for the full path when deleting the file. You can use IO.File.Delete() or My.Computer.FileSystem.DeleteFile()
