Searching folders

[Bob]

I have macro which searches within a folder for Word
documents (using Application.FileSearch) and then modifies
each of the found docs.

The macro works well when the folder to be searched is of
the form "C:\folder\subfolder". However, when trying to
search folders with the path "http://folder/subfolder" the
macro doesn't work.

The path specified using the .Lookin property is always
changed (by Word/VBA?) to "C:\Documents and
Settings\...\Microsoft\Templates".

Is there another way of searching the folders I could try?

AFAIK, you have to use a completely different method to access HTTP
stuff. In work envs I ask for ftp to be setup over the http dirs as
well, then I can use FTP instructions to fetch and carry for me
SOOO much easier
