Naomi,
There is no way I will read the whole thread, but, for what I read, nobody proposed the use of the FileSystemObject, something like:
clear
lcPath = 'C:\Windows'
loFSO = Createobject('Scripting.FileSystemObject')
loFolder = loFSO.getFolder(lcPath)
for each loFile in loFolder.Files
if Like('*92*.log', loFile.Name)
? loFile.Name
endif
endfor
Appologies if it has been already suggested or discarded for any reason
