Can anyone answere this question that has me stumped..

I have created a form that will allow a user among other
things, to copy a photograph from a floppy disk to a
storage spot on a server in our building. They click a
button and the first step in the process is to create a
folder named "LAST_NAME" on the server in the "D:\photos"
folder.

What is the command in access that would create a
folder.... I thought I could use:

MKDIR "D:\PHOTOS\LAST_NAME" but it doesn't seem to
work.... HELP!
 
Hi,


It should work if it also works in the command mode ( "DOS" mode, even
if there is no "DOS" under XP and W2000). Can you create the same directory
from the command mode? You many not because of some access restrictions.
