I have this code to show the empty sub folders, as is it shows the path and the folder name is there anyway to just show the folders name without the path?


Code:
Sub ListEmptyFolders()
Dim fso As Object
Dim folder As Object
Dim subfolder As Object
Dim emptyFolders As String

Set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set folder = fso.GetFolder(Application.DefaultFilePath & "\" & "Music Copy")

For Each subfolder In folder.SubFolders
If subfolder.files.count = 0 And subfolder.SubFolders.count = 0 Then
emptyFolders = emptyFolders & subfolder.path & vbCrLf
End If

Next subfolder
If Len(emptyFolders) > 0 Then
MsgBox "The following folders are empty:" & vbCrLf & vbCrLf & emptyFolders
Else

MsgBox "No empty folders found."
End If
End Sub

Thanks

How to find 2nd largest value in a column?
MAX finds the largest value. =LARGE(A:A,2) will find the second largest. =SMALL(A:A,3) will find the third smallest
You can replace...

VBA Code:
emptyFolders = emptyFolders & subfolder.path & vbCrLf

with

VBA Code:
emptyFolders = emptyFolders & subfolder.Name & vbCrLf

Hope this helps!
