[R] list.files accessing subdirectory as relative path?

[Adel]

Dear list members,

I would like to access a subdirectory given where the work directory has
been set. So I have:

> getwd()
[1] "C:/Users/Lord Adellus/Dropbox/I8child1/Data"

> list.files() # give three folders
 [1] "Least Developed Countries"                         
 [4] "Low middle income grouping"                         "More advanced
developing countries and territories" 

> list.files(path = "../Least Developed Countries") # I want to access now
> one of the subdirectories
character(0)

But as you can see R does not want to look into the specified subdirectory.
I have tried several combination and searched the list but without any great
success. 

Actually: 

list.files(path = "../...") #goes up one level in the folder structure so I
cannot see what the problem is.


Thanks in advance.
Adel
