Just like you would do one file you can read more than one file as well. I am not able to understand what you are trying.

Which OS are you using? Which API or object model?
The answer is dependent on both.

For example here's some code from a project of mine, but this isn't going to be a lot of use to you if you're not using the Windows API:

void recurseDir(const char *dir,int recfunc)
{
	WIN32_FIND_DATA FindFileData;
	HANDLE hFind;
	int bFin=0;
	char startDir[1024];
	strcpy_s(startDir,1024,dir);
	strcat_s(startDir,1024,"\\*.*");
	hFind=FindFirstFile(startDir,&FindFileData);
	while (!bFin)
	{
		if (hFind==INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE)
			bFin=1;
		else
		{
			if (FindFileData.dwFileAttributes & FILE_ATTRIBUTE_DIRECTORY)
			{
				// skip . and ..
				if (strcmp(FindFileData.cFileName,".") && strcmp(FindFileData.cFileName,".."))
				{
					char loc[1024];
					strcpy_s(loc,1024,dir);
					strcat_s(loc,1024,"\\");
					strcat_s(loc,1024,FindFileData.cFileName);
					if (recurseFuncData.skipSkipDirs && skipDir(FindFileData.cFileName,loc))
					{
						//printf("Skip dir '%s'\n",loc);
					}
					else
					{
						//printf("Recurse into directory '%s'\n",loc);
						recurseFuncData.dirCount++;
						recurseDir(loc,recfunc);
					}
				}
			}
			else
			{
				//printf("Found file '%s'\n",FindFileData.cFileName);
				//recurseFuncData.fileCount++;
				strcpy_s(recurseFuncData.fromDir,1024,dir);
				if (!recurseFunc(recfunc,&FindFileData))
					bFin=1;
			}
		}
		if (!FindNextFile(hFind,&FindFileData))
			bFin=1;
	}
	FindClose(hFind);
}
