Because a search like this can take a while, and will basically just run in the background until either cancelled via Task Manager (look for wscript.exe), or it completes a scan of EVERY folder on your hard drive, I don't usually write things like this without starting and ending messages.
Set FSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
StartingLoc = "C:\"
LookingFor = "String To Search For"
Sub Display_Fs(Folder)
For Each Subfolder in Folder.SubFolders
' Uncomment to display a popup message indicating where we are
'wscript.Echo "Getting: " & Subfolder.Path
' First, show the files in the local folder
Set F = FSO.GetFolder(Subfolder.Path)
Set FilesCollection = F.Files
For Each File in FilesCollection
if File.Type = "MP3 Format Sound" then
if InStr(file.name, LookingFor) > 0 then
wscript.Echo file.path
end if
end if
Next
' Call the function so we dive into the current folder
Display_Fs Subfolder
Next
End Sub
wscript.echo "Starting"
' Because the top folder is assumed to have no higher branch we can reference,
' we display the currenly sitting files first
Set F = FSO.GetFolder(StartingLoc)
Set FilesCollection = F.Files
For Each File in FilesCollection
if File.Type = "MP3 Format Sound" then
wscript.Echo File.path
end if
Next
' Having displayed everything local, we begin our trip down the tree
Display_Fs FSO.GetFolder(StartingLoc)
wscript.echo "Ending"
