Confused by VBWorld-tip...

Sample found on VBWorld - looks very nifty, but: Reference docs state the DLL having the functions used below is named "DbgHelp.dll", not "ImageHlp.dll". Any expert out there who may throw some light on all this?

The tip (by K. Moore) -

Creating Nested Directories

This one works by calling a function in the IMAGEHLP DLL... and if the directory specified doesn't exist, it creates it for you. And you can go down as many levels as you want - this function handles nested directories with ease.

To use this code, call CreatePath, passing in the path to create. The function returns True if successful.

Usage
x = CreatePath("c:\program files\new app\database\references")

Code

VB Code:

Declare Function MakeSureDirectoryPathExists Lib _
    "IMAGEHLP.DLL" (ByVal DirPath As String) As Long
 
Public Function CreatePath(NewPath) As Boolean
 
    'Add a trailing slash if none
    If Right(NewPath, 1) <> "\" Then
        NewPath = NewPath & "\"
    End If
    
    'Call API
    If MakeSureDirectoryPathExists(NewPath) <> 0 Then
        'No errors, return True
        CreatePath = True
    End If
 
End Function

- end tip quote.

regards everybody /lumen

It works in both the cases, but you should stick to "DbgHelp.dll" as suggested by the documentation.
