Read all file names from folder

Hi all,

i'm trying to load only file names from the folder but not the data in it.

When i try the below code, it is fetching data too..which is  a performance issue.

Can someone please help?

Any help is highly appreciated!

SET vFolder = '\\files'; //Storing the folder path in a variable.

Files:

LOAD

FileName() as Test

FROM $(vFolder)\*.qvd (qvd);
