You don't really have to make a formula or anything; I'm pretty sure this works:

;;
Global folder$="C:\Program Files\Blitz3D\Samples"
ChangeDir folder$
SetBuffer BackBuffer()
;; read the directory
.loaddir
sel=ReadDir(CurrentDir())
;; load files
;
;;
;; draw the folders etc
Repeat
	Cls
	Text 0,0,folder$,0,0
	If KeyHit(14)				;[backspace]
		ChangeDir ".."
		;Delete Each file
		Goto loaddir
	EndIf
	If KeyHit(1) End
	Flip
Forever

Basically, instead of using a variable for the folder, use CurrentDir() and ChangeDir().
