Default Cannot assign value to Filesearch.Lookin

Thanks Tom!

But it still doesn't work. Actually, I tried that first and then add
the quotes. Neither of them work.

lose all the quotes. Filepath is already a string

.Lookin = filepath

Hello, everone,

I just posted this and something wrong w/ my computer, sorry if I post
it twice.

I have a problem with assiging file path to .LookIn. I saw couple
messages regard to it but still don't get it. Any help would
appreciate.

Here is my code:

FilePath = ThisWorkbook.Path & "\Phase1_Comments\"

Set FS = Application.FileSearch
With FS
.LookIn = """" & FilePath & """"
.FileName = FileSpec
.Execute
If .FoundFiles.Count = 0 Then
MsgBox "No files were found, ...."
Exit Sub
End If
End With

ThisWorkbook.Path is as http"//servername/.../
.LookIn is still as C:\documents and settings\ after running.

This code is in workbook event - SheetFollowHyperlink

My excel is 2000.

Thanks a lot!
