[RESOLVED] Search files in directory
I have two files in this location
1) C:\DATABASE\SAWAHSEMPADAN\DATA\Soil.shp
2) C:\DATABASE\SAWAHSEMPADAN\DATA\LOT\Soil.shp
When I used code below to search files in the directory and sub directory,it able to found only one files in the parent directory. It suppose found two files in the directory. Why could be like this?
Code:
Private Declare Function SearchTreeForFile Lib "imagehlp" _
(ByVal RootPath As String, ByVal InputPathName As String, _
ByVal OutputPathBuffer As String) As Long
Private Const MAX_PATH = 260
Private Sub Command1_Click()
Dim tempstr As String, ret As Long
tempstr = String(MAX_PATH, 0)
'Search files in directory and sub directory
ret = SearchTreeForFile("C:\DATABASE\", TextBox2.Text + ".shp", tempstr) 'search data shapefile
If ret <> 0 Then 'If data found
Call Insertsub(tempstr)
End If
End Sub
Private Sub Insertsub(tempstr As String)
Dim i As Long
Dim sName() As String
Dim sPath As String
Dim inti As Integer
sName = Split(tempstr, "\") 'contains File name'
inti = UBound(sName)
'search file name dan show filename with extension dan path location dalam listview
Dim lvItem As ListItem
Set lvItem = ListView1.ListItems.Add(, , sName(inti))
lvItem.ListSubItems.Add , , "" & GetDirFromFile(tempstr)
TextBox3.Text = sName(inti) 'name
TextBox4.Text = GetDirFromFile(tempstr) 'path location
End Sub
Public Function GetDirFromFile(fileName As String) As String
GetDirFromFile = Left(fileName, InStrRev(fileName, "\"))
End Function

Code:

That is correct. It won't find multiple copies of the same file name.
Re: Seach files in directory
Oh that works great.. It like scanner..
The code helps me a alot . I would like do something like this...
When I input the files name in the textbox.. It scan the directory "C:\DATABASE\SAWAHSEMPADAN\DATA" and show me the files location in the listbox if found..
Code below scan all files in the directory for *.txt pattern. I change to textbox1 to "C:\DATABASE\SAWAHSEMPADAN\DATA"
Re: Seach files in directory
Just type filename and extension instead of widcard. It will find the location of those files.
