Filesearch method

[Guest]

It seems that Access.Application.FIlesearch is no longer available in Access
2007. Any ideas on how to replicate the functionality it used to provide?

The code is a little different than FileSearch, e.g. it actually lists the
zip files instead of their contents.

In addition to Allen's function, here is another method shown:
