object.
FolderExists
(folder)
This method allows us check if a specified folder exists. It returns a Boolean value -
True
if the folder does exist and
False
if it doesn't. Note that if the folder that you are checking for isn't a subfolder of the current folder, you must supply the complete path.
In the following example the
FolderExists
method is used before creating a new folder to check that it doesn't already exist.
Code:
<%
dim filesys, newfolder
set filesys=CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
If Not filesys.FolderExists("c:\DevGuru\website\") Then
newfolder = filesys.CreateFolder "c:\DevGuru\website\"
Response.Write("A new folder '" & newfolder & "' has been created")
End If
%>
Output:
"A new folder 'c:\DevGuru\website\' has been created."
