Is there a diffent way to search the entire hard drive for a certain file or files?

I looked for "sysFileFind" in the MSDN Library Visual Studio 6.0, and I also looked for it at http://msdn.microsoft.com/ and couldn't find it in either place.

How would I go about searching a whole drive for a file? Can it be done with the FileExists method?

Does anyone have any idea why this isn't working? If Dir(&quot;C:\Custlink&quot;) <> &quot;&quot; Then Kill (&quot;C:\Custlink\*.*&quot;) If Dir(&quot;C:\Custlink\Batch&quot;) <> &quot;&quot; Then Kill (&quot;C:\Custlink\Batch\*.*&quot;) RmDir (&quot;C:\Custlink\Batch&quot;)...

I know I can use the Kill command to delete files, but how would I go about deleting a directory?

How would I write an IF EXIST type statment? I'm need to check if a file exists.

This is all getting a bit frustrating. I'm new at this, I'm not even a programer, but I'm doing some projects for the company. Now because of the error checking for the customer ID, I do have to check to see if &quot;SET %DRV=&quot; + Left(drvSoftware.Drive, 1) has been added to the file...

One more question.... I made that a Public Function. Now can I access that from another form in the same project?

Maybe I should have worded it differently. How do I get the program to loop back to the begining until something is entered in txtCustomer.Text field? I only want the error to pop up if there is nothing in that field. If nothing is there, loop back until something is there, else go on with...

How would I loop this until it was done? Dim ChkID As String ChkID = txtCustomer.Text If ChkID = &quot;&quot; Then Message = &quot;Please fill in the Customer ID Number&quot; MsgBox Message, vbOKOnly + vbInformation, &quot;ERROR&quot; End If

That was extremly helpful!!! Thank You very very much!!

Say I had a return of C:\shop\data\mdb from a dirlistbox. Would there be a way to make the drive letter and the returned directories into variables so.. C = W, shop = x, data = y, mdb = z and then write that to a file and say... W: CD X CD Y CD Z I'm quite new at all of this. Thank you to...

Hmmm... I think I should have asked it a little diffently. That is more than I need by far I think. As I rewrote what I did, I no longer had to look if something was already there, just append. What I need to do is just insert a string of txt into file on a certain line.... say like this...

Wow, thanks!! I have to do this about 7 times, is there another way that's any less complicated or a bit shorter?

How would I add txt to a certin line in a txt or bat file? Say I wanted to add it to line 4... Dim lngI As Long Dim Autobat As Long Dim strFile As String Autobat = FreeFile Open &quot;C:\Autoexec.bat&quot; For Input As #Autobat strFile = Input(LOF(Autobat), #Autobat)...

Thank you very very much, that works perfectly!!

However, there is a varying letter after the =, that's why I put in 11.

What I'm trying to do is look for a string in a file. If it's not there, add it. It it is there, replace it with a new one. I seem to be doing something wrong.... Dim Autobat As Long Dim aryByt() As Byte Dim strFile As String Autobat = FreeFile Open...

I have a similer question, but a little different. I've been looking through page after page of already answered questions looking for an answer, but could find none. How would I replace a line of text in a txt file? If I can't just replace a line, is there a way to just take a line of text...

Thank You all for your help on that, I got that figured out, but now I have another matter that has come into view. This is what I have for writing the batch file... Dim Sdrvbat As String Sdrvbat = FreeFile Open &quot;C:\Sdrv.bat&quot; For Output As #Sdrvbat Print #Sdrvbat, &quot;SET...
