Use VBA to Reproduce Explorer "Copy As Path" option

If I am doing a search through a number of files for a particular word ("Motor") or file configuration (".pdf"), I can, once the procedure is complete, press <Shift><Right Click>, and then left click on "Copy as Path".  That takes all the found elements and stores them to the clipboard, where I can paste them any where I want, i.e., a text file or Excel.  

I would like to replicate this functionality using VBA code.  I would like VBA to capture a whole series of folder/file paths, based on the search criteria given it.  I do know how to use vba to invoke a command prompt, and have the prompt run Explorer from a set folder:

Shell "Explorer C:\FindFiles\

Select all Open in new window

What I don't know how to do is choose a search criteria when running Explorer, and I also don't know how to give VBA visibility to the files it has found.  What might also work is redirection (">") which produces sends command-line output elsewhere.  (i.e.,

Shell "Explorer C:\FindFiles\ > CopyAsPath.txt

Select all Open in new window

).  (I realize that the previous example goes out on a limb, ss windows has become so dominant a part of the landscape, redirection is hardly in place any more.

Anything that will support VBA to see the results of a search is what I seek.  Thank you.
