finding whether a folder exists or not

hello
i want to find whether a folder exists or not
how can i do
please help me

try this :

VB Code:

Option Explicit
 
Private Sub Form_Load()
 
Dim myFolder As String
 
 
myFolder = Dir$("C:\SampleFolder\")
 
If myFolder = "" Then
    MsgBox "Folder does not exist!"
ElseIf myFolder <> "" Then
    MsgBox "Folder Exist!"
End If
 
End Sub

the above code is working but
it is working if the folder contains any file
otherwise the
function is returning empty string
the i am not able to verify
can u help me

VB Code:

If Dir$("c:\somedir", vbDirectory) <> "" Then
   'directory exists
Else
   'directory doesn't exist
End If

That should work even if the dir has no files in it, since you're explicitly looking for the dir.
