There's a great freeware component that I use for searching and it's even faster than Windows! It's called, "hahFindfiles", and though written for Delphi 6 or 7 it compiles and works fine with D9 too. I believe I picked it up on About.com but if you have trouble locating it I can send you a copy.

I should be able to make use of the Windows search procedure but I don't know how. Any help, or do I have to write my own recursive routine to do it? __________________________________________________ Delphi-Talk mailing list -> [email protected] http://www.elists.org/mailman/listinfo/delphi-talk __________________________________________________ Delphi-Talk mailing list -> [email protected] http://www.elists.org/mailman/listinfo/delphi-talk
