delete all word files in a nested directory

mbcohn · #8 01-18-2021, 05:03 PM

Running the code on a series of nested folders, many Word files were deleted, but eventually there was a Run-time error 53 on:

Code:

  Kill CStr(Split(StrFolds, vbCr)(i)) & "\" & strFile

I have looked at the folder where it stopped, and I don't see anything unusual about the files there. I ran the program again, this time aiming it only at the problem directory, and it worked fine. I wish I could tell you the names of the files or directories, but unfortunately that's not possible.
