    Red face Insert table values with a folder search files

    Hi,

    [MS Access 2003]

    I'd like to be able to run an existing function on all the folders that are matching a certain search criteria, which is: \*\*\1\ - this means to look for 3rd level subfolders with folder name "1" only.

    how do I go over a given folder and search in all its subfolder for a matching folder name?

    - sample code will be most appreciated,

    Thanks!

    look at this thread here, it basically does exactly what you want in excel, you will just need to alter to suit the Access VBA, from the VBA6
    i do my best to test code works before i post it, but sometimes am unable to do so for some reason, and usually say so if this is the case.
    Note code snippets posted are just that and do not include error handling that is required in real world applications, but avoid On Error Resume Next

    dim all variables as required as often i have done so elsewhere in my code but only posted the relevant part

    come back and mark your original post as resolved if your problem is fixed
