   objFind.SearchPath = "c:\temp"

Remarks

The FilesOfType argument can be any three-character file extension, such as .bas, .cpp, .txt, and so forth. Also, FilesOfType corresponds to the File types box. It is a semi-colon delimited list of wildcard patterns to search. It works similarly to the MS-DOS dir command. You can, for example, set FilesOfType to MyProg*.cpp. You can only use the wildcard characters on files, however, not directories. So, for example, you could not use Sample*\abc*.cpp.
