[AccessD] RE: Your last E-Mail to donnslaw.co.uk was corrupt of unreadable.Find Files db

I ran that same code just changing the directory to C:\ and it came up with
all the mdb plus some (only a few really) that are on other drives (and
listed them mulitiple times at that, I'm not sure how it came up with the
extra ones.
It did grab ones from a sub-sub-sub folder starting with R.  I had none in a
direct sub folder so I can't answer your question directly.

Hmm. I ran a variation of Charlotte's code (informed by Rocky's, but
Charlotte's was closer to what I think I want) that looks like this:

  Dim varItem As Variant
  With Application.FileSearch
    .NewSearch
    .SearchSubFolders = True
    .FileName = "*.mdb"
    .LookIn = "G:\"
    .Execute
    'Debug.Print .FoundFiles.Count
    DoCmd.SetWarnings False
    For Each varItem In .FoundFiles
        strSQL = "INSERT INTO tblFiles (FileInfo) VALUES ( '" & varItem & "'
)"
        'Debug.Print strSQL
        DoCmd.RunSQL strSQL
    Next varItem
  End With

This gets me the filepath, with name, though not the file size or any date
info. But that's fine, I can live with that.

What's baffling me is that the above drive has 280 .mdb files on it (yes, I
know that's ridiculous, which is the point of the exercise) but the
..FoundFiles.count only returns 152. It doesn't seem to have looked in any
sub folders beginning with 'R'. Is this the sort of whacky behaviour you
guys have experienced?!
