Path/File access error 1

[matrixindicator]

Hey everyone,

If Dir(strMap) <> "" Then
    Else
        MkDir strMap
    End If

I create a new map every day with a name the day of today 20071126.

He should check if the map already exist and I do this with the code above.

While testing he produce the error '75' Path/File access error. What can be wrong and how should I improve my code eventually ?

Does the variable "strMap" include a full path to the variable?

(eg C:\Documents and Settings\Username\My Documents\20071126)

yes, as a string

"D:\20071126

Dir Function 's attributes, if omitted, return files that match pathname but have no attributes.

Maybe you need

Dir(strMap, vbDirectory)

 

[matrixindicator]

can it be hard coded something like this

Dir("20071126","D:\")

I do some tests

thanxs Jerry,

Its a small tip but the correct answer to this question.
This works,

Dir(strMap, vbDirectory)
