I am not 100% sure what you are asking here, but if you want to get a list of all the files on the server using something along the lines of:-

string[] files = 
Directory.GetFiles
  (@"c:\myfolder\", "*.exe", SearchOption.TopDirectoryOnly);

or using linq

var files = from f in Directory.GetFiles(@"c:\myfolder\")
    where f.Contains(".exe")
    select f;

Once you get all the files then you need to iterate through the results and work out which one you want to return.

We probably need more info...

Something similar to:

void Page_Load(object s, EventArgs e)
{
 DirectoryInfo di = new DirectoryInfo("c:/inetpub/wwwroot/demos");
 FileInfo[] rgFiles = di.GetFiles("*.aspx");
 foreach(FileInfo fi in rgFiles)
 {
  Response.Write("<br><a href=" + fi.Name + ">" + fi.Name + "</a>");       
 }
}

DirectoryInfo:
