Search for files

[adamsj13]

Hi all, Is there a way to search the entire hard drive for a specific file ext.? Not everyone saves data to the same location and when running this script im missing some data at times. Thanks all

Here is the script I have running now

msgbox(1, "Backup", "Once Complete another Message will appear")

DirCreate("h:\backup\lotus\notes\data")

DirCreate("h:\backup\desktop")

DirCreate("h:\backup\favorites")

DirCreate("h:\backup\passport")

DirCreate("h:\backup\My Documents")

DirCreate("h:\backup\printers")

DirCreate("h:\backup\network-drives")

sleep(10000)

DirCopy(@MyDocumentsDir, "h:\backup\My Documents", 1)

DirCopy(@DesktopDir, "h:\backup\desktop", 1)

DirCopy(@FavoritesDir, "h:\backup\favorites", 1)

FileCopy("C:\program files\lotus\notes\notes.ini", "h:\backup\lotus\notes")

FileCopy("C:\program files\lotus\notes\data\*.nsf", "h:\backup\lotus\notes\data")

FileCopy("C:\program files\lotus\notes\data\*.id", "h:\backup\lotus\notes\data")

FileCopy("C:\program files\lotus\notes\data\*.dsk", "h:\backup\lotus\notes\data")

FileCopy("C:\program files\lotus\notes\data\*.ndk", "h:\backup\lotus\notes\data")

FileCopy("C:\program files\passport\*.kpd", "h:\backup\passport")

FileCopy("C:\program files\passport\*.mac", "h:\backup\passport")

FileCopy("C:\program files\passport\*.zcc", "h:\backup\passport")

FileCopy("C:\program files\passport\*.zws", "h:\backup\passport")

FileCopy("C:\program files\passport\*.*", "h:\backup\passport")

runwait(@comspec & " /c " & 'REGEDIT /E ' & 'h:\backup\network-drives\MappedDrives.reg "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Network\"', "" ,@SW_HIDE)

runwait(@comspec & " /c " & 'REGEDIT /E ' & 'h:\backup\printers\Printers.reg "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Printers\Connections\"', "" ,@SW_HIDE)

SoundSetWaveVolume(99)

SoundPlay("C:\winxp\media\tada.wav", 1)

msgbox(1, "Backup", "Backup Complete")

[/dev/null]

FileFindFirstFile Returns a search "handle" according to file search string.

FileFindNextFile Returns a filename according to a previous call to FileFindFirstFile.

see help file for samples...
