How To Find Whether A Folder Exists or Not?

Hello Gurus...

I think this is a silly question for u.. but it is eatingmy brain

If it returns "No" then how toi create it?


I was done this job once using " Scripting.Filesystemobject"
But now i am unable to get it

Please Explain it in " Scripting.Filesystemobject"...or u can take any other
Thanks In Advance

Include Microsoft Scripting Runtime in Project-->References

In your form:
Dim FsObj As FileSystemObject
Set FsObj = New FileSystemObject
MsgBox FsObj.FolderExists("C:\")

May be U want to try using VB w/o FSO?
Just Plain DIR() function
U can use any other folder to test this function?

Code:

---

Dim sDir As String
sDir = "C:\windows\" 'folder must end with a slash
If Dir(sDir) <> "" Then
MsgBox "Folder Exist!"
Else
MsgBox "Folder Does Not Exist!"
End If

---

'Microsoft Scripting Runtime

Dim fso As FileSystemObject
Set fso = New FileSystemObject

If Not fso.FolderExists("Path") Then fso.CreateFolder("Path")

Windows 98 initially does not include the Windows Scripting Host component.

How can I create a folder using VB instrucions rather than the fso?

Since I don't work for Microsoft, I don't want to force the user to install Internet Explorer 6.0 SP8 with MSN Messenger 15.5 nor the latest 800 critical system updates to get a stupid file. Nor copy it manually.

I hate when I start any app in a fresh windows 98 install and NOTHING works. So from now on I avoid the Windows Common Controls, Windows Script host and other new components.
