Heres basic recursive

strFolder = "C:\"
Set objFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set objFolder = objFSO.GetFolder(strFolder)
WScript.Echo objFolder.Path
Set colFiles = objFolder.Files
For Each objFile In colFiles
WScript.Echo objFile.Path
Next
ShowSubFolders(objFolder)
Sub ShowSubFolders(objFolder)
Set colFolders = objFolder.SubFolders
For Each objSubFolder In colFolders
WScript.Echo objSubFolder.Path
Set colFiles = objSubFolder.Files
ShowSubFolders(objSubFolder)
Next
End Sub
