This ASP function counts files of a specified extension inside a folder: this is done by creating a file system object, open folder and scan files for matching the extension. The match of the extension is made without regular expression but using string functions: Right, Len and Ucase.
Function countFiles(path,ext) Dim fs, folder, c c = 0 Set fs = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject") Set folder = fs.GetFolder(path) For Each item In folder.Files If UCase(Right(item.Name, Len (ext))) = UCase(ext)) Then c=c+1 Next countFiles = c End Function
Great snippet, except it does not work. There is a syntax error within the IF statement with one too many closing brackets…
UCase(ext)) Then c=c+1
should read:
UCase(ext) Then c=c+1
