The ReadDirectory method has several output parameters:

ReadDirectory(FileName [,FileLength] [,FileDate] [,FileOwner] [,FileGroup] [,FilePerms] [,IsDirectory])

The default behavior of the ReadDirectory method is to automatically detect the format of the file listing provided by the FTP server, and to parse each entry in the listing to fill its output parameters. The DirectoryFormat property may also be set explicitly to one of the supported formats before calling OpenDirectory, to force the control to interpret the listing provided by the server in a specified fashion. Note that this is rarely needed.

It is not required that you specify all of the arguments to the ReadDirectory method. Only the first output parameter of the ReadDirectory method is required:

' List only names and dates
FileTransfer1.ReadDirectory FileName,,FileDate
