    Open files using *wildcard within photoshop

    Hi forum members.

    I'm hoping someone can shed light on what I'm doing wrong.

    I have a number of files within a folder. I want to open only the files that have the word "shadow" in their filename. I want to open these files in the photoshop application.

    The script works when referencing the exact path with filename, but I can't use the exact path because the filename is variable (however it always contains "shadow"). I left my attempts that failed commented out.

    Sub Main()
        LayerFiles "C:\Rendermation\Renders"
    End Sub
    
    
    Sub LayerFiles(strFolder)
        Dim ObjPhotoshop
        Dim fso, folder, files, folderIdx
        Dim arrFileType
        Dim arrCameraAngle
        Set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
        Set folder = fso.GetFolder(strFolder)
        Set files = folder.files
        Set ObjPhotoshop = CreateObject("Photoshop.Application")
        For Each folderIdx In files
            arrFileType = Split(folderIdx.Name, ".")
            If IsArray(arrFileType) Then
                If arrFileType(UBound(arrFileType)) = "png" Then
                    ObjPhotoshop.Open "C:\Rendermation\Renders\bluestone_Flair_Channel_Cushion_R_3-4X3-4.3dm_Shadow.png"
                    ' ObjPhotoshop.Open & Chr(34) & strFolder & folderidx.name & Chr(34)
                    ' ObjPhotoshop.Open "& Chr(34) & strFolder & folderIdx.Name & Chr(34) & "
                    ' ObjPhotoshop.Open "C:\Rendermation\Renders" & "*Shadow"
                End If
            End If
        Next
    End Sub
    
    Function FileExists(strFile)
        Dim objFSO
        Set objFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
        If objFSO.FileExists(strFile) Then
            FileExists = True
        Else
            FileExists = False
        End If
            Set objFSO = Nothing
    End Function
    
    
    Function MkDir(strDirectory)
        Dim objFSO
        Dim objFolder
        Set objFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
        Set objFolder = objFSO.CreateFolder(strDirectory)
        Set objFolder = Nothing
        Set objFSO = Nothing
    End Function
    
    
    Function FolderExists(strFolder)
        Dim objFSO
        Set objFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
        If objFSO.FolderExists(strFolder) Then
            FolderExists = True
        Else
            FolderExists = False
        End If
            Set objFSO = Nothing
    End Function
