Any macro gurus out there? What I'm hoping to accomplish is to have a
simple macro that takes a directory and recurses through each
subdirectory looking for the occurrences of a specific word in each
Word document. It should basically have the Find Next functionality
except that when it hits the end of one file, it proceeds to the next.
I have written a macro that searches through all files and reports back
all files that contain a given string. However, that functionality can
be obtained by just hitting Start -> Search -> Files and Folders...

Any suggestions? Thanks in advance!

This is a NEW USERS newsgroup. That doesn't mean users new to newsgroups but
users new to Word. I suggest that you redirect your question to one of the
Word VBA Newsgroups where the VBA gurus hang out.
