I am looking for a macro that will list all subfolders (all levels) within a directory and count files in each of those subfolders. No file names, just number of files contained in each folder.
View 9 RepliesI have a problem with getting the list of files in subfolders. this code is writing the names of files in a folder to column "A". But it is just "target" folder. But i need to get the name of all files not just under the target folder but also subfolders of target and even subfolders of subfolders of target

My problem is to create a macro that will list all folders, subfolders and files in an order in excel. So that I know which folders and files belong to which main folder, more like a hierarchy.
For example,
Sourcefolder
Subfolder 1
File1
I have code that list all files in folders and subfolders, but it does not put them in a hierarchy fashion.
provide some code which lists all today changed Excel files on the C drive and hyperlink them.

Is there a way using VBA to list all the files contained in a particular folder which automatically reads through the subfolders of that folder?
The subfolder names should not appear anywhere except in the path of the file name.
The file names have to be in the form of full path including file name with extension.
I found some code that works well to index a folder and all sub-folders for file names.
The issue is that the folder used is coded in an excel spreadsheet (cell C7) in the below code and whether to look in sub-folders (cell C8 - True or False).
Code:
Sub ListFiles()
iRow = 11
Call ListMyFiles(Range("C7"), Range("C8"))

I have tried to incorporate the browse for folder and select if sub-folders are used, but it isn't working.
I'm trying to make a macro that will search a folder and move all files from 2008 into another folder. So far it can do this, but what i need is for it to search subfolders also. At this point it moves all files from the main folder, but nothing from the subfolders.

I am trying to use VBA to list out subfolders within a folder. I Googled already and find some codes.
Code:
Option ExplicitPrivate iColumn As Integer
Sub NowRun()
Dim MasterPath As String
MasterPath = Range("B1").Value
TestListFolders (MasterPath)
[Code] .....
As shown above, these codes basically would list out ALL subfolders (or sub-subfolders, sub-sub-subfolders...).
I need some modifications to the codes to achieve the followings:
1) Limit to 3 layers of subfolders only, and ignore all subfolders after Layer3:
MasterPathLayer1Layer2Layer3
2) Show the full folder path on a cell next row, no need to divide into several columns:
I sort of know what the codes are doing, but I don't know how to stop the loop as I am new to VBA.
I have this code which works but the first 2 entries that the macro lists in cell A1 is . and cell A2 is ..

how to list all the folders/subfolders (no files) of a specified directory?
I've seen a few examples of listing filenames from directories but I'm unsure how to just list folders/subfolders.
I was wondering if there is a way to list all filenames from a directory on a worksheet including the files located within it's subfolders? I found a bit of code at [URL] that is as follows, but I can't seem to get it to read the files in the subfolders... Also, would it at all be possible to hotlink each entry so that the user can double-click the name in the sheet and open the file?
VB:
Sub ListAllFile() Dim objFSO As Object Dim objFolder As Object Dim objFile As Object Dim ws As Worksheet Set objFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject") Set ws = Worksheets.Add 'Get the folder object associated with the directory Set objFolder = objFSO.GetFolder("C:") ws.Cells(1, 1).Value = "The files found in " & objFolder.Name & "are:" 'Loop through the Files collection For Each objFile In objFolder.Files ws.Cells(ws.UsedRange.Rows.Count + 1, 1).Value = objFile.Name Next 'Clean up! Set objFolder = Nothing Set objFile = Nothing Set objFSO = Nothing End Sub
i have many excel workbooks in a folder i want a macro that will get the names of all the files and make the file names so extracted as a hyperlink to open the files.

I am stuck in the text in RED. Please let me know how to get this done.
Also, I need the full filenames of all the file types in that particular folder in a new worksheet.
Is there a way that I could monitor the number of files in a folder and its contents (including subfolders)?
Folder A: (total count of files)
Subfolder
Folder A.1 no. of files containing boy
Folder A.2 no. of files containing girl
Folder A.3 no. of files containing boys and girls
I need to get a word cound from 140 excel files.
I don't want to calculate cells with just numbers and they have to be words.
Better still If I could get all the text into one word document, that would be even better.
I'm trying to create a function to count the number of files in a folder then add one.
I'd like to refer to the function in my spreadsheet, so I can generate a new reference number for my sheet.
Here is the code I've used so far, which I've made reference to in my sheet by typing "=countfiles(Q3)" (Q3 contains the name of the folder I want to search in.
Function countfiles(ByVal foldername As Integer)
With Application.FileSearch
.LookIn = "C:Temp" & foldername
.FileType = msoFileTypeExcelWorkbooks
.Execute
nooffiles = .FoundFiles.Count
End With
countfiles = nooffiles + 1
End Function
When I use simlair code in a macro, it works:
Sub countfiles2()
With Application.FileSearch
.LookIn = "C:Temp" & Range("Q3").Value
.FileType = msoFileTypeExcelWorkbooks
.Execute
MsgBox (.FoundFiles.Count)
End With
End Sub
Obviously, I would prefer the function option, with reference to it in the cell.

I'm using this piece of code to go through Folders and their Subfolders. It works quite well in going through the first folder and its sub's but does not seem to generate a full list.
I am looking for specific files in these folders, and depending in what folder I place the file, it may or may not detect it. I require the code to go at least 3 levels deep (sometimes more).

a method of accessing all files within a folder to get the number of rows/records and contents of "A2".
The file could ideally look at the current folder it's in and collect the requested data.
Hopefully I can work and develop the code to suit.
I have used macro to ftped a couple of files to my desktop and save them in a folder but i have problems performing the following.
1) Count the number of files in this directory "C:Summary_Reports_from_VBA". Note that the number of files is not fixed every time.
2) Rename each files to .txt files. (intially files do not have any extension and we do not know the name of the file until it has been ftped over but all files will end with a term "sorts" eg renaming of "xxxsorts" to "xxxsorts.txt")
3) Save each renamed files in an Array such that i can "opentext" each file in an excel worksheet. So if there's multiple files, there will be multiple worksheets.
I have a list of names in B8:B200 (unique)
I have another list of names in I7:I15
I want to count how many names in B8:B200 that matches any of the names listed in I7:I15.
I have a list of files in column A:
/folder/subfolder1/subfolder2/subfolder3/file1.txt
/folder/subfolder1/subfolder2/file2.txt

/folder/file4.txt
in column B I would like to see just the filenames:
file1.txt
file2.txt
file3.txt
file4.txt
How can I achieve this? On the internet I found this forumule which looks promising but unfortunately finds the first slash (instead of the last) and prints what's to the right of that slash:
=RIGHT(C2; LEN(C2) - SEARCH("/";C2))
I have a directory structure with a folder in drive C:, this folder contains a varying number of subfolders each containig one file (.xls extension). I wish to populate a ListBox with the filenames only (not the full path) of all the files contained in all of these subfolders. I know how to populate the ListBox with the file names of a given folder, but in this case the user is not aware of the number of subfolders or their names.

The Count of Sample1 file should come in Column I and the count of Sample2 file should come in Column J of Sample1 file.
After above steps macro should automatically pick the lowest value (value should be greater than 0, if value is 0 than macro should consider it as blank) from Column I and J and paste it to Column K.
In Sample1 file I had also shown that how the data should look after running the Macro.
