Using VB6, how do I search the entire network looking for a specific file, and build a list of hits? If the search could be optionally limited to servers, that would help.

I already have code to search a specific drive.

TIA

Using File Scripting you can read the folders of any computer on the network, as long as you have permissions.
Put the file names into a string
Then search that string for the name of the file and add to a list if found.
