Class CCeFileFind performs local file searches on a Windows CE system. CCeFileFind includes member functions that begin a search, locate a file, and return the name, path or size of the file.

The following code will enumerate all the files in the current directory, printing the name of each file:

CCeFileFind finder;
BOOL bWorking = finder.FindFile(“*.*”);
while (bWorking)
{
 bWorking = finder.FindNextFile();
 AfxMessageBox(  finder.GetFileName() );
}

After calling FindFile to begin the file search, call FindNextFile to retrieve subsequent files.
You must call FindNextFile at least once before calling any of attribute member functions:
