Create a folder in Livelink with VBA

[dnLL]

Hi guys,

This is probably an easy one but I don't have any access to the KB and I can't find any information on the Web, so here it is. I would like to create a subfolder into a specific folder in Livelink. I already have the LivelinkID of the parent folder and the fullpath.

For example, I have the "parent" folder Livelink\Enterprise\Group01\Folder01\Folder02\ImportantRoot\ (LivelinkID 1234567) and I would like to create a subfolder named "Something" and get back his LivelinkID too to add it to our database. What would be the fastest way of doing so?

Thank you.

were you looking to use LAPI or WebServices ?

I went to communities.opentext.com and subscribed. But their forums are a complete mess, I am unable to find anything there.

And that's why I'm actually here. All I want is a little VBA to create a folder into Livelink, I guess it's 3 lines of code, I can't believe you guys can't help me.

ggriffit, I actually don't even know what's the difference. What I want to use is VBA. I can't install additional modules on all computers this script will have to run from, that's for sure. Just something really simple.

Livelink version is 9.7.1.0.814 with Livelink Explorer 4.8.2.397, using Outlook 2003. I'm already moving files with the following script:

objStream.Open "URL=" & urlLivelinkWebDav & "/" & folderID, adModeWrite
objStream.Type = adTypeBinary
objStream.LoadFromFile pathSource
objStream.Flush
objStream.Close
