Is a folder list extraction possible?
The following code was posted by Bill Manville some time ago. You should be
able to make a few changes to get a list of directories only (just remove the
section that saves the names of individual files).
Option Base 1
Dim aFiles() As String, iFile As Integer
Sub ListAllFilesInDirectoryStructure()
Dim Counter As Integer
iFile = 0
ListFilesInDirectory "c:\test\" ' change the top level as you wish
For Counter = 1 To iFile
Worksheets("Sheet1").Cells(Counter, 1).Value = aFiles(Counter)
Next
End Sub
Sub ListFilesInDirectory(Directory As String)
Dim aDirs() As String, iDir As Integer, stFile As String
' use Dir function to find files and directories in Directory
' look for directories and build a separate array of them
' note that Dir returns files as well as directories when vbDirectory
specified
iDir = 0
stFile = Directory & Dir(Directory & "*.*", vbDirectory)
Do While stFile < Directory
If Right(stFile, 2) = "\." Or Right(stFile, 3) = "\.." Then
' do nothing - GetAttr doesn't like these directories
ElseIf GetAttr(stFile) = vbDirectory Then
' add to local array of directories
iDir = iDir + 1
ReDim Preserve aDirs(iDir)
aDirs(iDir) = stFile
Else
' add to global array of files
iFile = iFile + 1
ReDim Preserve aFiles(iFile)
aFiles(iFile) = stFile
End If
stFile = Directory & Dir()
Loop
' now, for any directories in aDirs call self recursively
If iDir 0 Then
For iDir = 1 To UBound(aDirs)
ListFilesInDirectory aDirs(iDir) & Application.PathSeparator
Next iDir
End If
End Sub

I would like to archive a list of folders that are on data CDs that we burn
... Is there a way to do it with excel? Išve written a macro to rip out
filenames from a specific folder, but folder names themselves is interesting
problem.
I would also like sub-folders (and sub-sub etc) if possible.
Any ideas or even a small app that does it for you that isnšt excel??
Thanks a million ...
