Dear Experts
Is there a way of being able to check a network folder for file names containing the same piece of text? I have a spreadsheet which people now automatically save to a specified folder "W:\Accounts\Site Daily Bankings\To be posted". However some people are saving their file more than once (a user problem that unfortunately won't go away) which I need to filter and delete. The file's are saved with the site name, then a date stamp, i.e. "SiteName Banking 09Mar2006_152600" Ideally I would like to search on the first piece of text as it is always the site, but how would I delete the others ?; Ie, if I have SiteName Banking 09Mar2006_152600 SiteName Banking 09Mar2006_152599 SiteName Banking 09Mar2006_152598 I would want to keep "........152600" and delete the other two. Anybody any idea's?, -- Message posted via OfficeKB.com http://www.officekb.com/Uwe/Forums.a...mming/200603/1 |
