Equivalent of Directory.CreateDirectory() in VB6

Question

Trying to create several layers of folders at once C:\pie\applepie\recipies\ without using several different commands, is there an easy way similar to Directory.CreateDirectory()

Answer 1

Here's some code I used in one of my projects. It requires a reference be added to the project for the file system object.

First, click Project -> References, scroll down to "Microsoft Scripting Runtime" and select it. Then you can use this function:

Public Sub MakePath(ByVal Folder As String)

    Dim arTemp() As String
    Dim i As Long
    Dim FSO As Scripting.FileSystemObject
    Dim cFolder As String

    Set FSO = New Scripting.FileSystemObject

    arTemp = Split(Folder, "\")
    For i = LBound(arTemp) To UBound(arTemp)
        cFolder = cFolder & arTemp(i) & "\"
        If Not FSO.FolderExists(cFolder) Then
            Call FSO.CreateFolder(cFolder)
        End If
    Next

End Sub
