FileSearch FileName using wildcard (?)
Hello,
Application: Excel XP SP2 Environment: Windows XP SP1 Problem: I use "???5??.xls" as the argument for the FileName property of the FileSearch object. After my procedure has done I do not get only files named "???5??.xls", but also files, which are named "????????5??.xls". Their name length is more than 10 characters, I thought my filter limits the files found to files with a name length of 10 characters. Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong? Regards Werner |
