Default Count all "xlsx" fromat files in a Folder

FileSearch has been dropped for Excel 2007.

Try

Sub test()
Dim foldername As String
Dim FSO As Object
Dim fldr As Object
Dim file As Object
Dim cnt As Long

foldername = "C:\Data"
Set FSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FilesystemObject")
Set fldr = FSO.GetFolder(foldername)
For Each file In fldr.Files

If file.Type Like "*Microsoft Office Excel*" Then

cnt = cnt + 1
End If
Next file

Set file = Nothing
Set fldr = Nothing
Set FSO = Nothing

Range("A1").Value = cnt
End Sub
