How Do I see if a directory exists?

Just wondering how I can find out if a directory exists using code and then if it does bring up a prompt and if not do nothing.

I dont know if i can use the dir$() function or if there is some eaiser or better way.

Any help would be appreciated.

Please if you could post some code to help me.

Thanks

[code]
If (Dir(pathName) <> "") Then
MsgBox "Path exists"
End If
[code]

Code:

---

If Dir("MyDirectory", vbDirectory) <> "" Then
Msgbox "Directory exists"
End If
