Hi,

I am looking to get the list of excel files in a folder through VBA.
By browsing the net i found this

Sub Search_files()
Dim FileS As FileSearch
Dim F As Variant
Dim x As Integer
Set FileS = Application.FileSearch
With FileS
.NewSearch
.Filename = InputBox("Insert file name")
.LookIn = InputBox("Insert the path")
.SearchSubFolders = True
.Execute
End With
x = 1
For Each F In Application.FileSearch.FoundFiles
Cells(x, 1) = F
x = x + 1
Next F
End Sub

When the cursor goes to "Set FileS = Application.FileSearch" it says
the OBJECT DOESN'T SUPPORT THIS ACTION"

Kindly provide solution

Thanks'
Hari

FileSearch was removed from xl2007. Use the Dir function.
