Hello,  
I’m trying to **get all files name** of folder using GetFilesName. If I am using wildcard in GetFilesName then i am able to get all files of the folder.  
Can we get all files name without using wildcard? or we must have to use it to get all files name

Yes we can get all files of folder using Wildcard But I wanted to get it without using wildcard.  
Can we do this without using Wildcard?
