This is a trick one.

I have got a number of files (.txt) in 3 different directories, all created at different times within the week

D:\ABC
D:\EDF
D:\GHI

I need to generate a report (text file) for the week that will list the file entries as follows:
(This is an example. Date – stands for creation date)

Directory Mon Tues Weds Thurs Fri Sat Sun
        Date date date date date date date

ABC 2 1 4 0 1 0 1
EDF 9 8 1 7 1 1 1
GHI 4 3 2 3 2 2 2

Weekly total 15 12 7 10 4 3 4

Total Number of files: 55

Please help!

Generate one datatset(with dataset.clone()with 3 tables into it) from 3 different text files.

Now you loop through no of rows of dataset and just add the corresponding columns values for summing up. Then you print it into another text file ie. your report
