Moderators Melba23 Posted November 8, 2017 Moderators Share Posted November 8, 2017 rahulsics, The function is indeed slow if you have an extensive folder structure - but you can speed it up by using a negative value for the $iRecur parameter which limits the search to a fixed level below the root. That might speed things up considerably. Without sight of the directory structure it is hard to offer more than such general guidance, but you could do something like this: Search the root folder for just the folders it contains (use the $FLTAR_FOLDERS parameter to do this) Get the date/time of those folders as I described above and sort the array so as to get the latest folders at the top Loop through those first few folders and search for your file within them (using as specific a mask as possible and the $FLTAR_FILES parameter) - you can combine the returned arrays using _ArrayConcatenate. And now you have an array of the instances of your file in only those folders. Give it a go and come back if you run into problems M23 Earthshine 1 Any of my own code posted anywhere on the forum is available for use by others without any restriction of any kind Open spoiler to see my UDFs: Spoiler ArrayMultiColSort ---- Sort arrays on multiple columnsChooseFileFolder ---- Single and multiple selections from specified path treeview listingDate_Time_Convert -- Easily convert date/time formats, including the language usedExtMsgBox --------- A highly customisable replacement for MsgBoxGUIExtender -------- Extend and retract multiple sections within a GUIGUIFrame ---------- Subdivide GUIs into many adjustable framesGUIListViewEx ------- Insert, delete, move, drag, sort, edit and colour ListView itemsGUITreeViewEx ------ Check/clear parent and child checkboxes in a TreeViewMarquee ----------- Scrolling tickertape GUIsNoFocusLines ------- Remove the dotted focus lines from buttons, sliders, radios and checkboxesNotify ------------- Small notifications on the edge of the displayScrollbars ----------Automatically sized scrollbars with a single commandStringSize ---------- Automatically size controls to fit textToast -------------- Small GUIs which pop out of the notification area Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
