Okay, I have this problem... I have code that allows the usre to create a folder, and then place it on the server, C drive, wherever they direct it to, except the initial drive. That is the problem... The user creates a folder, and then can only put it in a folder within a drive, and can't just put it on the drive. My observation is that the error is occuring because two foward slashes are being delivered as the path instead of one. For example, it works for putting in a folder. You create the folder, "Monkeybutt". Alright. You can put it in C:\thisisafolder\monkeybutt\ but if you put it in just the "C:\" drive, you get C:\\monkeybutt, and that is invlaid. Can someone tell me how I can take off that "\" when I want to specify a drive? Like, If character 4 equals "\" Then delete? How would I do that? Any help would be great! Thanks! Here is the code that I have now...
Private Sub Command3_Click()
Dim strResFolder As String
Dim x
x = InputBox("What is the name of the folder you would like to create?")
If x = "" Then
MsgBox "Please Choose the other button to browse a folder", vbExclamation
Exit Sub
Else
strResFolder = BrowseForFolder(hwnd, "What directory would you like the folder to be created in?")
End If
If strResFolder <> "" Then
MkDir strResFolder & "\" & x
MsgBox "You have choosen to place the file(s)/folders in the " & x & " folder under the directory " & strResFolder & "", vbExclamation
Text1 = strResFolder & "\" & x
Else
MsgBox "Cancel was pressed! Folder was not created!", 16
Exit Sub
End If
End Sub
