creating folders during runtime

[dascribe]

Is there a way to name and create a new folder (ex in my documents) during runtime?

[Jax]

Yes, here is an example:

View MFA

Watch out though: When you use the file object, all sub-folders of the folder you are making must exist. Some other objects don't have this requirement. (I know Ini++ doesn't off the top of my head, but otherwise I'm not sure)

Thx,

I'm going to try it out now.

Some other objects don't have this requirement.

There's Sphax' File-Folder object as well.

Ok, I got the new folders working, but I can't figure out how to save the file (list file) in the folder I just created.
Is there anyway to save to a folder you just created?

[LB]

Yeah, all you have to do is save there.

So, what is it you can't figure out?

[dascribe]

Well this is what I'm trying to do.
Each time there is a new user,I want to create a folder for that user that will contain all of their files.

So I want the folder to have the user name and I want to create an initial file for that user.

Also want to be able to access the folder by using the user's name to find it.

Can't save to a folder the usual way if the folder does not yet exist when you are coding the save (pre-runtime)

[LB]

OK, so, the problem you're having is...?

[dascribe]

The problem is that I don't know how to access the directory during runtime if the directory was created during runtime.

[LB]

You access it the exact same way as you would if it already existed. There's no difference at all.
