Display Files in a Folder. Please Help!

[the_future21]

Is there a way in ASP.Net 2.0 to display the contents of a folder so people can download the files in the folder.

Also I would like to password protect each individual file before it is downloaded. After you click the link to download a file it would prompt you for a password. is this possable?

Suggestions Please.

Thank you for all the help.

1) system.io.directory.getFiles (http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.io.directory.getfiles.aspx)

2) it would be better if you further clarify your second question, such as.... -

-when user successfully authenticated into your site (i assume they need to authenticate) do they still need re-enter their password again?

-password protect based on role?

the user does not need to log-in to the site. the files will be displayed for anyone to view, but to download the file they need they will need a password associated with that file. each file will have a password created by the person who uploaded the file.

THanks for your help

the files will be displayed for anyone to view



i'm afraid that as long as the file can be view through a browser, it will be pointness to add password protection because the actual copy already cached in the client's machine....
