(About the author)
 
     My coding actually does several things. The main thing is that it can search an entire Drive and all of its Directories for a file you specify and at the end of the search display the results of it. Or you can do the same thing but this time look for any file with an extention you specify. I made this search for the file using API but I left a function in there you can edit to search for the files without API but it's a little slower and not recommended. This Screen Shot can pretty much explain it all... <br><BR>E-mail: mikecanejo@hotmail.com AIM: Mike3dd

To get this great code working you may 
need to add some lines in [Private Sub 
cmdgo_Click()], exactly next to this 
line of code:
lstdirs.AddItem 
Drive1.Drive

the lines which to be added in the code 
are:
'***
If Len(lstdirs.List(0)) > 2 
Then
    lstdirs.List(0) = 
Mid(lstdirs.List(0), 1, 2)
End If
'***

Can this be implemented in an error 
handler function, like say someone 
moves one of your support files, an 
image or something, can you a vb scan 
the drive for that file, and load it 
into your application from its new 
location and then save the path as that 
files new location?
