Hi,
We just purchased control from you and,
and wondering if it is possible to hide certain file types from user, i.e. hide file type with extension of asp, aspx and show everything else

The AllowedFileTypes property of a root folder currently controls the file types that are allowed to be uploaded but we are considering to make this property control the listing of files too in next versions.

We do need this -or- instructions for us to build something ourselves to remove these. You lead me to believe this feature would be included in the 1.6 ver. Please give us some guidance. Thanks

Ok, here is a quick way to accomplish file type filtering.
Edit FileVistaControl\scripts\filevista.js and search this line:
grid.addRow(cellArray, icon);
Replace it with these lines:
reFileTypes = /^.*\.htm|.*\.html$/i;
if (reFileTypes.test(cellArray[1]))
grid.addRow(cellArray, icon);
Note that the filter above is for *.htm and *.html files. Use the expression syntax .*\.ext for matching *.ext and separate extension expressions with | symbol.

FYI, v1.7 includes this feature:
- Added: A root folder's AllowedFileTypes property will now restrict all file actions (List, Delete, Rename, Copy, Move, Extract, Compress and Download) and not only Upload action. This means only allowed file types will be visible and manageable in the file listing.
