Application.FileSearch crashed Excel in Windows 2K
 

I use the following code to search for specific files:

MyFilePath = "C:\Documents and Settings\trinaj\My Documents\"
' This is for 'trinaj's computer

MarkSub "starting filesearch next:FindOldFiles"
With Application.FileSearch
.NewSearch
.FileName = "*.xls"
.LookIn = MyFilePath
.SearchSubFolders = True
.TextOrProperty = "BuildStreetsReports"
.MatchTextExactly = False
.Execute
MarkSub "filesearch complete:FindOldFiles"

===========================

This code runs fine on a Windows 98 system (though it is slow) and runs fine
on a Windows XP system (very quick).

I tried to read the path to the user's "My documents" folder, but settled
for hard coding in that for this user (trinaj). I had the user open a
worksheet that read that and recorded it and then had he send me the
worksheet. Then I had her browse to her My Docs folder and copy the path and
email it to me. I got the same path each time (C:\Documents and
Settings\trinaj\My Documents\), so I am fairly assured that this is correct.

MarkSub records the passed text in an extra worksheet and saves the
workbook, and when I look at that sheet, "starting filesearch
next:FindOldFiles" is the last entry, so I think I can be certain that the
"Application.FileSearch" is where things bomb.

Can anyone suggest a solution? Possibly an alternative to using
"Application.FileSearch". This needs to be generic enough that I don't have
to have each user do any unusual configuration to make it work. The
multitude of users have Windows 98, Windows 2K and Windows XP.

TIA,
