Is there a way to find a file in the following scenario:
Get every PDF that contains the word "spec" in the file name in the following file structure.
F:\100-200\Project 100\PDF\Project100_spec.pdf
F:\100-200\Project 101\PDF\Project101_spec.pdf
F:\100-200\Project 102\PDF\Project102_spec.pdf
...
..
F:\100-200\Project 200\PDF\Project200_spec.pdf
In short, the search path is something like F:\100-200\*\PDF\*
I am not sure what is the best way to look these files up.
Thanks for helping out
Finding files in specific folder structure
Re: Finding files in specific folder structure
Welcome to the forum
One way:
Invoke the find files tab (by default: Ctrl + F)
Use this for the name field:
"F:\100-200\*\PDF\*spec.pdf"
Don't remove the double quotes here!
Make sure "Path" is checkmarked
