Friends,

Excel 2000 running in XP

The following code works fine
FileSystem.MkDir "c:\lion"

However, I get error 75 (path/file access error) when I run:
FileSystem.RmDir "c:\lion"

C:\lion is an empty directory. Any ideas what's wrong? Thanks for your help

Try it without "FileSystem."

RmDr "c\lion"

Hi, Jim ...

I am now at the office (Excel 2000 on Win 2000) - the following code now
works fine. Don't know what the problem is with Excel 2000 on my XP OS at
home. If I can't get it to work I'll do an Excel re-install.

Thanks for your help ...

Sub Tester1()
FileSystem.MkDir ("D:\lion")
End Sub

Sub tester2()
FileSystem.RmDir ("D:\lion")
End Sub
