I am not sure I understand what you are asking. The FileUtils component has a method called GetFilesInDirectory. This will return the files in the directory, although I don't know what order they will be in.

If you want to get the properties of a file (like the date that you might then use to compare to other dates, you could do something like the attached solution).
