    i have a folder called BL, using (dos_search) it is possible to find it in
    the current directory but not if it resides within a sub-folder, is there a
    way to find it no matter how "deep" that folder is.

    Look at dos_subdir.
    (dos_subdir "c:\\") will return only the folders under "c:".
    (dos_subdir "c:\\temp\\nextdir\\") will return only folders under "nextdir" ect.

    Hi Martin,

    The DOS_FIND function found in DOSLib 6 will recurse folders.

    i've tried it, it will find nested files, but not nested folders, only those
    in the current directory.
