I'm running OXP SP-2 on WXP SP1, but I'm not getting *any* foundfiles no
matter what kind I'm searching for.

Well I'm running Office XP on WXP w/ Service Pack 1.
I can't think of any specific settings which would lead to the exclusion
of the particular databases I'm missing :(

That's interesting, Roz. I just pulled your code out, changed the path
to point to a folder on my machine with mdbs in it, and got a zero for
the FoundFiles count. And I had the same problem with Rocky's sample
database. It has to be a setting that is causing the failures some of us
are experiencing. Now, if we could just figure out what it is ... :o{
Rocky, any suggestions?

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?!
