I have a sequence of code in an Access Application that loops through files in a specific folder -- using For/Next:

For Each File In Folder.Files
Code
Code
Next

My question is -- what is the order that it sequences through the files, is it alphabetical? Date Modified? Is there a way to change the criteria it uses to determine the order?

Any help is greatly appreciated. Thank You.

Highlight Duplicates
Home, Conditional Formatting, Highlight Cells, Duplicate records, OK to add pink formatting to any duplicates in selected range.
possibly you could collect the files into a list first, then loop through the ordered list.
