Just a Big Thanks

[litlmike]

I must say thanks to the AutoIt Community for helping me grow as a scripter. I just successfully coded using recursion, something I have never tried before and didn't think I would be able to do. I was surprised to find out that I was able to do it, and that showed me how far I have come in coding since I started. And, that is all credited to the AutoIt Community that has been so patient in teaching me. A big Thanks!

If you want to see the code I worked on, it is below. It lists all the sub-directories and files from a given folder. If anyone thinks it is useful, let me know and I will include it in the Example Scripts. Also, if you think I should modify and submit it for inclusion, then please give me feedback and I will. Thanks again.
