Creating Directories

Task:
I need to create a temp directory for files to be stored in.

Knowledge:
I know about MkDir and RmDir.

Problem:
I am not allowed to create a directory if it already exists. I would like to have a way to verify the directory needs to be created.

Thank you for reading this

Use the Dir function to check if a folder exists.

Code:

---

If Dir("C:\MyDir", vbDirectory) = "" Then
MkDir "MyDir"
Else
Msgbox "Directory already exists!", vbCritical, "Error:"
End If

Once again you have come to the rescue.

THANKS!! That works just fine. I never knew about the vbDirectory portion of the command. I learned something new today.
