Creating directories

[dendog]

Is there any API in C++ or anything in the SQL API which I can use to create new directories on a remote machine.

Thank you in advance.

Try:

BOOL CreateDirectory(
LPCTSTR lpPathName, // directory name
LPSECURITY_ATTRIBUTES lpSecurityAttributes // SD
);

the "LPSECURITY_ATTRIBUTES" parameter can be set to "NULL".

#include <windows.h>

if ( !CreateDirectory ( &quot;\\\\ServerName\\ShareName\\DirName&quot;, NULL ))
   { // Failure
     DWORD dwCauseOfFailure = GetLastError ( ); 
     ... }
