Example

The following example displays the root path of each directory in My Computer. To retrieve this information, the example first gets the ScopeFolder object at the root of My Computer. The path of this ScopeFolder will always be "*". As with all ScopeFolder objects, the root object contains a ScopeFolders collection. This example loops through this ScopeFolders collection and displays the path of each ScopeFolder object in it. The paths of these ScopeFolder objects will be A:\, C:\, etc.

Sub DisplayRootScopeFolders() 
 
 'Declare variables that reference a 
 'SearchScope and a ScopeFolder object. 
 Dim ss As SearchScope 
 Dim sf As ScopeFolder 
 
 'Loop through the SearchScopes collection 
 'and display all of the root ScopeFolders collections in 
 'the My Computer scope. 
 For Each ss In SearchScopes 
 Select Case ss.Type 
 Case msoSearchInMyComputer 
 
 'Loop through each ScopeFolder object in 
 'the ScopeFolders collection of the 
 'SearchScope object and display the path. 
 For Each sf In ss.ScopeFolder.ScopeFolders 
 MsgBox "Path: " & sf.Path 
 Next sf 
 
 Case Else 
 End Select 
 Next ss 
 
End Sub
