It uses recursion - I love recursion, don't know why, just do.

Frank,

That solution neither handles sub-directories nor ignores hidden or
system files.

Here is my FSO solution.

Option Explicit

pidlRoot As Long
pszDisplayName As String
lpszTitle As String
ulFlags As Long
lpfn As Long
lParam As Long
iImage As Long

Dim FSO As Object
Dim cnt As Long

Dim arFiles

Sub Folders()
Dim i As Long

Set FSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")

arFiles = Array()

level = 1

ReDim arFiles(2, 0)
arFiles(0, 0) = GetFolder()
If arFiles(0, 0) < "" Then
arFiles(1, 0) = level
SelectFiles arFiles(0, 0)

Worksheets.Add.Name = "Files"
With ActiveSheet
.Cells(1, 1).Value = "Path"
.Cells(1, 2).Value = "Filename"
.Cells(1, 3).Value = "Date Created"
.Rows(1).Font.Bold = True
.Columns("A:C").EntireColumn.AutoFit
cnt = 1
For i = LBound(arFiles, 2) To UBound(arFiles, 2)
.Cells(i + 1, 1).Value = arFiles(0, i)
.Cells(i + 1, 2).Value = arFiles(1, i)
.Cells(i + 1, 3).Value = arFiles(2, i)
Next
End With
End If

End Sub

I need to get into an excel worksheet the results of a dir
function, (including sub directories), so that on the first coloumn
let say A will be the directory (including the sub directories),
on coloumn B the file name, and on coloumn C the file extention,
on coloumn D the file size and coloumn E the date the file was
changed.
My OS is windows XP and my excel ver is 2000.
The type of files should not include hidden files of system files
:)

Thanks for the help
rahela
