Filesearch Limitations

Guest

I Access 97 this worked fine- I found the requisite 160,000 or so files.
We just converted to Access 2003 and am stuck at some 65,530 records which seems to be the upper limitation for this. When I look at the documentation it says that the foundfiles count is a long. Does anyone have any Idea why I'm stuck at this limitation of 65,530 files found?

I was doing a filesearch that looked like the following:


Sub tifFilesearch()
Dim myarray()
Dim fs As Object
Dim i As Integer

' Declare filesearch object.
Set fs = Application.FileSearch

' Set folder to search.
fs.LookIn = "s:\recovery\odom"

' Set file name to search for.
fs.FileName = "*.tif"
fs.SearchSubFolders = True
' Execute the file search, and check to see if the file(s) are
' present.
If fs.Execute > 0 Then

' Redimension the array to the number of files found.
ReDim myarray(fs.FoundFiles.Count)
Debug.Print fs.FoundFiles.Count
' Loop through all found file names and fill the array.
For i = 1 To fs.FoundFiles.Count
DoCmd.RunSQL "insert into TotalOdomInfo (image) select " & Chr(34) & (fs.FoundFiles(i)) & Chr(34) & " as expr1;"
Next i
Else
' Display message if no files were found.
MsgBox "No files were found"
End If
End Sub

Unfortunately, I've changed it to botha a long and then a double with the same results.
