Search within folder name using VBA

D

davemode

Hello,

I have a folder structure in Windows Explorer, every folder has its
own customer number. The user should be able to type a substring of a
customers number in an Access form and I want search within the folder
names and return the folder paths.

How can I search within the folder names?? i found many articles about
searching files but none of folder names.

I'm very happy about every suggestion. Thank you,

Walter
