Search and How to display the files in a directory

[bscottj48]

We want to create a Form for searching. We want the results to return the names of files (linked if possible), from a specific folder location on a "Shared" drive.

For example: We have Product X. We want to search for and need to "see" documentation for Product X concerning Admin Procedures, or Reference Materials, or User Manual.

Is this doable?

Please advise. Thanks.

Edit: Understand that this code here will DELETE files

objFile.Delete True

If you reference the Microsoft Scripting Runtime you can use code like this ...

Using the file dialog box might be another option. You could select and manage all the files (open, delete, copy, move) that matched your needs by setting the multi select property to true. Not only would you not have to create/maintain/evaluate links to the files, you would be able to visually make near match comparisons. If someone mis-typed the file name, it would be obvious, but you may not be able to deal with all the possible spelling variations through code.
