How to create a directory in Scripter Automation

Is it possible to create a directory in Scripter Automation? If so, how?

I need to call ActiveX plugin. In VB you can call it with

My.Computer.FileSystem.CreateDirectory("C:\Documents and Settings\AllUsers
\Documents\NewDirectory")
Solution

  • You need to create a FSO and use its .CreateFolder method:

    >> Set oFS = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
>> s = "NewDirectory"
>> WScript.Echo CStr(oFS.FolderExists(s))
>> oFS.CreateFolder s
>> WScript.Echo CStr(oFS.FolderExists(s))
>>
