Hi,
I'm using this call: dir=FINDOPEN(GETSTARTPATH+"*.xl*")
I would expect this to find files named "filename.xls" or "filename.xlsx" - instead it only finds
"filename.xlsx"
What am I doing wrong?
Brian
Note: I know what I was doing wrong . . . there wasn't a file with an extension of .xls,
just one with .xlsx - Duh! Not puzzled, but puddled!
Brian, try *.xl?
I think * assumes more than one character. ? is just one character.

The "*" indicates including anything( or nothing) from here on.
Rereading Brian's note you will see that it didn't find the file because it wasn't there. :D
