Subject Re: path test From Charlie <tm@tc.com> Date Thu, 22 Apr 2021 17:44:04 -0400 Newsgroups dbase.getting-started Thanks Mervyn... One other question...   if using fileex you find out the directory doesn't exist and you would like to make the directory..  You would have to md C:\dbase first then md c:\dbase\test.  This would be easy doing it manually, but say you wanted to program this separating the string somehow before the second "\"  So somehow c:\dbase would be made then c:\dbase\test would be made.  Would fileex help with this or is there some other way you could do it?  Hope I explained this correctly.
