Recent File Finder
==================

Send me an e-mail if you use this program at all.  
I'd love to know if anybody finds it useful.

DEFINITELY let me know if you run into problems.

For those or questions, contact me at rellis@interpath.com.


Description
===========

This program creates a file called C:\RECENT.TXT.  It's a comma-
delimited file with the name of each subdir in the path you specify,
and for each one, the most recently updated file within.  Subdirs
of each subdir are recursed and included in the search.

To get a better idea of what I mean, pick a path with lots of 
subdirectories, and run the program on it.  Then look at the 
output; it's pretty self-explanatory.  

The name and location of C:\RECENT.TXT are hardcoded in the program.
Sloppy, I know, but I didn't know if anybody else would ever see it.
Let me know if you want that changed and I'll take care of it.

$10 donations are also quite motivating...  :^)

This program requires you to have installed the runtime files for
32-bit Visual Basic 4.0 on your PC before you can run it.  You
can probably get them from www.microsoft.com or about a dozen other
places.  They're big and lots of people already have them, 
so I left them out of this package.  If you've ever had a program
that was written in 32-bit VB4 on your PC, then this one should run
without a hitch.

There are no INI files, no DLLs, nothing special, other than the VB4
stuff.

P.S. -- If you choose to use the "exclude directories" feature, remember
that you don't enter the whole path to a given directory; just the immediate
directory name (e.g. exclude "SYSTEM", not "C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM").
