Commas terminating input string

couple things:

I am inputting tab-delimited text and commas are terminating the input strings. Any way to kill this and let commas go thru?

Second, a user wanted all output to be written to a new folder with a date. anyone have code to make a new folder, add name using Now (or something), change path, chdir, open file, write string example, etc.?

-lp

The second question is just simple file I/O, but the first question... I don't understand ...

VB Code:

Dim filePath 'The full path of the output file
 
    Dim copyToDirectory As String 'Directory to copy files to
    copyToDirectory = "C:\Temp\PlayBoy"
    
    Dim fileName As String 'Filename for output
    fileName = "PlaymatesOfTheYear.txt"
    
    'Check if the directory exists
    'If it doesnt create it.
    If Len(Dir(copyToDirectory, vbDirectory)) = 0 Then
        MkDir copyToDirectory
    End If
    
    'Set the file path to the directory and filename
    filePath = copyToDirectory & fileName
    
    'Write stuff to the file
    Open filePath For Output As #1
    Write #1, "Pamala Anderson"
    Write #1, "Jenna Jameison"
    Close #1

how are you inputing the TAB delim text? I dont know how a comma would terminate the string!??

If you are using Input # to read in the text strings, then a comma will terminate an input string (as will a tab). If you use Line Input # then you'll get a whole line at a time, which you can then parse to find what you are looking for.
