Show files from 2 different folders in a single Gridview

Question

Is it possible to show files from 2 different folders (c:\\test1 and c:\\test2) in the same gridview?

I work in VB.net (VS 2010)

Thanks!

Yes. Get list of all the files using Directory.GetFiles() into a single IEnumerable and bind it to a GridView.

This is how you'll do it in c#.

            List allFiles = new List();
            allFiles.AddRange(Directory.GetFiles(@"C:\test1\*"));
            allFiles.AddRange(Directory.GetFiles(@"C:\test2\*"));

            yourGV.DataSource = allFiles;
            yourGV.DataBind();
