Hi Pinky,
 
I tried my best to give you a descriptive answer. If you find it useful, please do accept my answer.
 
 

Let's say you added a form called Form1.
Then you dragged two buttons naemd button1(Open button) and button2(delete button).
You added events for the click events of those buttons as follows.
For button1 : button1_Click
For button2 : button2_Click

Then you added event for form load event.
Form1_Load

Then you dragged a listbox named listBox1.
Then you can use my code to do the rest.
 
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.ComponentModel;
using System.Data;
using System.Drawing;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Windows.Forms;
using System.IO;
namespace WindowsFormsApplication3
{
public partial class Form1 : Form
{
string path = "C:\\images";
public Form1()
{
InitializeComponent();
}
private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
try
{
//Save images
OpenFileDialog openFileDialog1 = new OpenFileDialog();
openFileDialog1.Filter = "Image files (*.jpg)|*.jpg";
openFileDialog1.FilterIndex = 1;
openFileDialog1.RestoreDirectory = true;
string sourceFile = "";
if (openFileDialog1.ShowDialog() == DialogResult.OK)
{
sourceFile = openFileDialog1.FileName;
}
else
{
return;
}
string filename = Path.GetFileName(sourceFile);
//Let's say you want to add images to 'C:\images' folder.
string file = string.Format("{1}\\{0}", filename, path);
File.Copy(sourceFile, file);
listBox1.Items.Add(filename);
MessageBox.Show("Image saved");
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
MessageBox.Show(string.Format("Error! {0}", ex.Message));
}
}
private void button2_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
try
{
if (listBox1.Items.Count == 0)
{
MessageBox.Show("No images");
return;
}
if (listBox1.SelectedIndex == -1)
{
MessageBox.Show("No Image selected");
return;
}
string filename = listBox1.SelectedItem.ToString();
string file = string.Format("{1}\\{0}", filename, path);
if (File.Exists(file))
{
File.Delete(file);
listBox1.Items.Remove(filename);
MessageBox.Show("Image deleted");
}
else
MessageBox.Show("File not found");
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
MessageBox.Show(string.Format("Error! {0}", ex.Message));
}
}
private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
try
{
string[] files = Directory.GetFiles(path);
foreach (string file in files)
{
string filename = Path.GetFileName(file);
listBox1.Items.Add(filename);
}
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
}
}
}
}
 
Please accept my answer if it helps you.

You can delete a file or a directory using the following code




  protected void lbtnremove1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        string imgname="Image1.jpg";
        try
        {
            File.Delete(Server.MapPath("../PropertyImages/12/" + imgname));
            File.Delete(Server.MapPath("../PropertyImages/12/"+ imgname));
        }
        catch (Exception ex)
        {
            lblMsg.Text = ex.Message.ToString();
        }

    }


U can either delete a root directory too by using the following code:


  protected void lbtnremove1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        string imgname="Image1.jpg";
        try
        {
            Directory.Delete(Server.MapPath("../PropertyImages/12));
            Directory.Delete(Server.MapPath("../PropertyImages/12));
        }
        catch (Exception ex)
        {
            lblMsg.Text = ex.Message.ToString();
        }

    }



Please accept this answer if u get satisfied


Cheers
