Hi Tracy,

The most unelegant solution I can think of is to open a cmd window, do a

DIR c:\myfile.dbf /S > outputfile

and then parse the output file.

Have fun!

>I know this has been posted before, but I cannot locate it using the search feature for some reason. I need the ability to search an entire drive for a specific file 'archeadr.dbf' and it needs to function on Win95, Win98, Win2k, and WinXP without having to install WSH or anything else. Will an API function work?
