Default File Search

I think I remember that xl97 has a problem with * . Another way,perhaps?

When I run my codes using Excel Version 10.0 under Windows XP it is fine

but when I run the same code using Excel Version 8.0e under Windows 1998, it
would output 'There were no files found" despite the fact files (*cf) are
present. Can anyone tell me where I've gone wrong with codes.

Set fs = Application.FileSearch
With fs
.LookIn = "C:\My Documents"
.FileName = "*cf"
If .Execute(SortBy:=msoSortbyFileName, _
SortOrder:=msoSortOrderAscending) 0 Then
MsgBox "There were " & .FoundFiles.Count & _
" file(s) found."
For i = 1 To .FoundFiles.Count
MsgBox .FoundFiles(i)
Next i
Else
MsgBox "There were no files found."
End If
End With
