Creting a directory....

[buccaneer]

Hi

can anyone tell me the syntax to create a new directry on my c drive.

I've tried Dim di
Set di=Directory.CreateDirectory("C:\mydir")
and i get an error...
Object Required: 'Directory'

Take a look at the FileSystemObject (aka fso) for its FolderExists and CreateFolder methods:
Set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
myDir = "C:\mydir"
If Not fso.FolderExists(myDir) Then
fso.CreateFolder(myDir)
End If

Hope This Helps, PH.

Dim strFolder
Dim objFSO

strFolder = "C:\myDir"

Set objFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
objFSO.CreateFolder(strFolder)
Set objFSO = Nothing
