I have many sub-folders within c:\accnts for eg TBBR1, TBKWNT,TBBORG

I would like my macro , which list alls the sub-folders within C:\accnts, but lists these on a sepertate workbook and not within the workbook containing the macro

 

I would also like to the folder to be set to C:\Accnts so no need to select the folder

 

The Sub-folders are for eg the ones listed below

 

C:\accnts\TBBR1
C:\accnts\TBKWNT
C:\accnts\TBBORG Etc

 

[code] Sub Extract_subFolder_Names() Sheets("").Select Application.ScreenUpdating = False Dim xPath As String Dim xWs As Worksheet Dim fso As Object, j As Long, folder1 As Object With Application.FileDialog(msoFileDialogFolderPicker) .Title = "Choose the folder" .Show End With On Error Resume Next xPath = Application.FileDialog(msoFileDialogFolderPicker).SelectedItems(1) & "\" Application.Workbooks.Add Set xWs = Application.ActiveSheet xWs.Cells(1, 1).Value = xPath xWs.Cells(2, 1).Resize(1, 5).Value = Array("Path", "Dir", "Name", "Date Created", "Date Last Modified") Set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject") Set folder1 = fso.getFolder(xPath) getSubFolder folder1 xWs.Cells(2, 1).Resize(1, 5).Interior.Color = 65535 xWs.Cells(2, 1).Resize(1, 5).EntireColumn.AutoFit Application.ScreenUpdating = True End Sub Sub getSubFolder(ByRef prntfld As Object) ChDir "C:\accnts\" Dim SubFolder As Object Dim subfld As Object Dim xRow As Long For Each SubFolder In prntfld.SubFolders xRow = Range("A1").End(xlDown).Row + 1 Cells(xRow, 1).Resize(1, 5).Value = Array(SubFolder.Path, Left(SubFolder.Path, InStrRev(SubFolder.Path, "\")), SubFolder.Name, SubFolder.DateCreated, SubFolder.DateLastModified) Next SubFolder For Each subfld In prntfld.SubFolders getSubFolder subfld Next subfld End Sub [/code]

 

Your assistance in this regard is most appreciated
