Why doesn't this work in Win 2K?
 

The following works well in Win 98 & Win XP, but causes Excel to crash &
quit in Win 2K:

With Application.FileSearch
.NewSearch
.FileName = "*.xls"
.LookIn = MyFilePath
.SearchSubFolders = True
.TextOrProperty = "BuildStreetsReports"
.MatchTextExactly = False
.Execute


Can anyone tell me why?

TIA,
Ken

Hi,
FileSearch uses Index Service or Office Find Fast.
how about turning on/off the services?
