The code I have written is as follows:

+ Code Snippet

void Load_Media(){
	int imgnum =0;
	
	dbSetDir( "Media" );
	dbFindFirst();
	
	for( int a = 0; a < 51; a++ )           //50 is max capacity for the GUI_Images array
	{
		GUI_Images[a] = a;
	};

	while( dbGetFileType() > -1 )        
	{          
		if( dbGetFileType() == 0 )   
		{          
			if( dbFindSubString( dbUpper( dbGetFileName() ), ".png" ) > 0 )
			{
				dbLoadImage( dbGetFileName(), GUI_Images[imgnum] );
				imgnum++;
			};
		};

		dbFindNext();
	};
};

The problem is that it doesn't seem to really be reading any of the images and storing them properly in the array I have. A little help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
