Filetoarray problems

[norjms]

I read the help file and copied the example script. The script works if I don't use $sFilter = "*" or $iFlag = 1 why? I'm trying to figure it out and how to use the flags.

#Include <File.au3>
#Include <Array.au3>


$FileList =_FileListToArray(@ScriptDir & "\Rip Source" , $sFilter = "*", $iFlag = 1)
If @Error=1 Then
    MsgBox (0,"","No Files\Folders Found.")
    Exit
EndIf
_ArrayDisplay($FileList,"$FileList")

I played with this once and thought I used *.* for the Mask/Filter. Have you tried that?

I will try to dig up my program that used this once I finish this cup of coffee =)

I removed the filer to just check each variable by itself like so

$FileList =_FileListToArray(@ScriptDir & "\Rip Source", $iFlag = 1)

It says I'm declaring a variable not just using an optional switch. Not too sure how to proceed.

You can't declare a variable in a function call!;

$FileList =_FileListToArray(@ScriptDir & "\Rip Source" , "*", 1)

ok now I understand and got it to work the help file could be more clear on how to use the switches.
