Open all files starting with "0" in subfolder?

[Diana (Cda)]

Good morning and happy Sunday!

For the last week I've been trying to figure out how to get AI to open all files in my startup folder beginning with "0", with some AI code I found, but it doesn't work.

I also tried the way I would figure out with my own code, but, like d'uh, no go either .

Here's what I found that supposedly should work, as far as I can tell from the original message (though I forgot to reference the URL so can't cite it here), but I've probably bungled it somewhere as it doesn't work:

#include <file.au3>

Local $array = _FileListToArray(@ScriptDir & "\Startup\", "0*.*", 1)


For $i = 1 To $array[0]
    ShellExecute($array[$i])
Next

The funny thing is that it references every file that has that starts with a "0" that Windows couldn't find the file it lists in each error box and to try again <lol>, which I find funny.  It can't find each file, but it lists each file by name <lol>.

I'm wondering if it's because I'm using ShellExecute but without referencing the app to open each file, as the files are all different types - run 2 or 3 apps, open some images (a PNG and JPG, or two), and URLs ... (?)

Anyway, any help appreciated!

I believe that if you put an _ArrayDisplay($array) you will understand why.  
 

#include <file.au3>
#include <Array.au3>

Local $array = _FileListToArray(@ScriptDir & "\Startup\", "0*.*", 1)
_ArrayDisplay($array)

For $i = 1 To $array[0]
    ShellExecute($array[$i])
Next
