The SearchOption is currently AllDirectories, if you just want to limit it to the Top Directories then change the SearchOption.
Note: You will need a ListBox named ListBox1 for testing the above code.

Controls needed:
- ImageList (iconList)
ColorDepth = Depth32Bit
ImageSize = 32, 32
- ListView (ListView1)
Add 3 Coloumns (Filename, Size, Path)
View = Details
SmallImageList = iconList
- ComboBox (ComboBox1)
- TextBox (TextBox2)
- ProgressBar (ProgressBar1)
- Label (Label1)
- A Button for running the code
This is all the code you need in a button click event.

That's all for now, happy coding.

you have not declared strpath and i cant see any codes for the combobox there can you please help me
Iirc the strPath is supposed to be the combobox. Why not a textbox? Because it can be used to show the history of last searched items.
The textbox was probably used for extensions. In the snippet it's hard-coded to search for all extensions (*.*).

It's an old code, I don't know why I put that.
The app will stop responding because of the frequent update of the ListView, so probably a lazy way to prevent it. Not sure.
