How do I list all file names in a directory

Dave

I am looking for a macro that first prompts the user to
select a directory and then lists all file names from that
directory and all sub directories in an excel column.

Thanks for any help

Dave,

There are eleven pages of "macros" in my Excel add-in "List Files".
However the code is protected...
It finds files in a drive, directory or folder meeting criteria you specify.
It generates a list on a new Excel worksheet showing...
file location, name, type, size and last saved date.
A hyperlink is created for each file.
It is very easy to use and comes with a one page Word.doc install/use file.
It is available - free - upon direct request.
Remove xxx from my email address.

modify to suit
Sub anotherfindfiles()
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Dim FN As String ' For File Name
Dim ThisRow As Long
Dim MyFileLocation As String
MyFileLocation = "c:\yourfolder\*.xls"
FN = Dir(MyFileLocation)
Do Until FN = ""
ThisRow = ThisRow + 1
Cells(ThisRow, 1) = FN
FN = Dir
Loop
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub
