Welcome to the forums! We are the most active Microsoft Access community on the internet by far, with posts going back over 20 years!

Here are just a couple of tips for you:

1. Feel free to ask any question you like, however basic you may feel it is, or even if it has been answered before. Our expert members thrive on helping you out!

2. If you prefer a dark theme to the forums, just go to the bottom left of this forum and click "Default style". You will then see a selection of themes to choose from. I like Shades of Blue.

3. If you like any of the answers you get, feel free to click the "Like" link on the bottom right hand corner of the post. If you hover over the Like link, you can even choose the type of smiley.

Above all, hang around here, have fun, learn stuff and join in.

No idea, but that path is not going to work?

Dim fs
Set fs = Application.FileSearch
With fs
.LookIn = "C: \ windows"
.FileName = "print.txt"

If .Execute> 0 Then

'code ...

End If
End With

@theDBguy That appears to show only for 2003?

Found this on this site, which says deprecated?

Oops, that's too bad.
