Question : count # of files in folder given a partial name

I have folders named:
AV-215 The Best Is Yet To Come
AV-300 For The One Time You Do It
AV-215 Kinda Liked You Before
AV-310 This Is The Place And The Time
...etc.
I need a way to input, for example "AV-215" and have my VB6 program tell me how many files in ALL folders with the first characters "AV-215", total.

Answer : count # of files in folder given a partial name

OK, now it looks through the subfolders.

Be sure to pass a wild card in NameFragment, as I indicated in my first comment.
