<br />
Q106653<br />
<br />
<br />
-----<br />
<br />
The information in this article applies to:<br /><br />
<br />
<br />
* Microsoft Word for Windows, versions 6.0, 6.0a, 6.0c<br />
* Microsoft Windows 3.1<br />
<br />
<br />
-----<br />
<br />
<br /><br />
<br />
<br />
== SYMPTOMS ==<br />
<br />
If a file specification (for example, *.doc) is included in the .SearchPath parameter of the FileFind command, that parameter will be ignored.<br />
<br />
<br /><br />
<br />
<br />
== CAUSE ==<br />
<br />
Because Word 6.0 can search for multiple file extensions, it does not accept file specifications on the end of the .SearchPath parameter. Below is an example of a FileFind .SearchPath parameter that is valid in Word 2.x but ignored in Word 6.0:<br />
<br />
<pre class="CODESAMP"> FileFind .SearchPath = &quot;C:\Winword\*.Doc&quot; </pre><br />
A correct .SearchPath parameter for Word 6.0 is<br />
<br />
<pre class="CODESAMP"> FileFind .SearchPath = &quot;C:\Winword&quot; </pre><br />
with the &quot;*.Doc&quot; entered in the .Name parameter if necessary.<br /><br />
<br /><br />
When macros are converted from Word 2.x to Word 6.0, file specifications, if any, are not removed from the .SearchPath parameter of the FileFind command. Therefore, these macros--once converted--will not run properly without being edited.<br />
<br />
<br /><br />
<br />
<br />
== STATUS ==<br />
<br />
Microsoft is researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available. Kbcategory: kbusage kbmacro<br />
