How to get foldername?

[Chambers]

Hi guys, I am attempting to write a script that will call a rar command and inject the foldername into the command line, basically the folder structure looks like this;

FolderName
- filename.txt

I need to perform this command

rar a 'Foldername'.rar *.txt
delete *.txt

Having a problem figuring out how to inject that foldername into the commandline. Thank you.

Are you doing this in ASP/VBScript using FSO?

Use shell.run

Example:

Set WSHShell = CreateObject("Wscript.Shell")
WSHShell.Run "rar a " & Foldername & ".rar *.txt"

I hope you find this post helpful.

Mark
