Restrict Text Report to a particular filetype e.g. *.tab

Hi,

I would like to be able to run a script recursively over very large drives to find files of a specific type without having to first use Find Files. Is this possible, the current script I am using is below, what I want is to be able to run this but limit the results to a single file type.

Script:

text report("{Name}|{Fullpath}|{prop:Owner}|{modified yyyy-mm-dd hh:nn:ss}|{created yyyy-mm-dd hh:nn:ss}|{accessed yyyy-mm-dd hh:nn:ss}|{Size MB}|{Len}<crlf>")

Thanks, Daryl.

Welcome to the forum.

report() has a second argument, [itemlist], so:

Code: Select all

text report("{Name}|{Fullpath}|{prop:Owner}|{modified yyyy-mm-dd hh:nn:ss}|{created yyyy-mm-dd hh:nn:ss}|{accessed yyyy-mm-dd hh:nn:ss}|{Size MB}|{Len}<crlf>", quicksearch("*.tab", , "|"));

Start it while you are in the root of a drive or give quicksearch the full path as it's second argument...

Hi,

This is working, albeit slowly, thanks for your assistance.

quicksearch() is fast, report() is rather slow (but it has to fetch some information for every file, so...)
