Description
Add names of all files in the specified path to a strings object. Use the overload if you want to include files in sub-folders too (up to the specified limit).
Path must include a wildcard, e.g. '.\*.jpeg' or 'C:\Images\*.*'
Note:
◼If Path does not include *.*, it will be appended automatically
◼Returned names INCLUDE the path
