FileSearch in Office 2007 generates an error?
Using Office 2007 and Windows XP;
Since converting to Office 2007, the following generates an error on the second line: Dim ofsSearch As FileSearch Set ofsSearch = Application.FileSearch Error is "Object doesn't support this action"; has the FileSearch object gone away? Or have I just been using it wrong in the past and Office 2003 let you get away with it? Could someone please offer an alternative to FileSearch? An example function to pattern search for a file would be most appreciated. Thanks much in advance. Thanks! |

Hi XP
FileSearch is removed from Excel 2007 You can use Dir See the "Copy/Paste/Merge examples" section on my site for examples. If you need more help post back -- Regards Ron de Bruin http://www.rondebruin.nl/tips.htm "XP" wrote in message ...
