How to reference the filesystemobject

[Braniac]

Dear Gurus,

I'm trying to replace my Dir, FileCopy and Kill statements with the FileSystemObject.
HOWEVER, my VB6 doesn't seem to know about this.
Anyone can tell me wich reference I use?

When I type: Dim fso as Files.... it´s not autocompleted, know what I mean?

Grzzz & thanx, Braniac.

'early binding
Dim oFileSystem As New Scripting.FileSystemObject
'or late-bind with: ('Reference "Microsoft Scripting Runtime" (scrrun.dll) available at http://www.microsoft.com/scripting)
Dim oFileSystem As Object
Set oFileSystem = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")

The FileSystemObject is in SCRRUN.DLL... you'll have to set a reference to this file (ie. Project-> References) look for "Microsoft Scripting Runtime" in the list. If it isn't there, use the browse button to locate it in the Windows\system directory.
