Does anyone have any idea why this doesn't work? I keep getting a Path
not found (Error 76) message and the mkdir (save_path2) part of the
code highlighted.

If Dir(save_path2, vbDirectory) = "" Then MkDir (save_path2)

Thanks,

Peter

If Dir(save_path2, vbDirectory) = "" Then MkDir save_path2

You can also check if the parent folder exists before you use MkDir

Sub test()

Set fso = CreateObject _
("Scripting.FileSystemObject")

save_path2 = "C:\blah\myDir"

parentFolder = fso.GetParentFolderName(save_path2)

If fso.FolderExists(parentFolder) _
And Not fso.FolderExists(save_path2) Then
MkDir save_path2
Else
MsgBox "Could not create folder"
End If

End Sub


Hope this helps.
