>It seems to make a difference which one you do first. If I do the DIRECTORY() first, it takes 6.75 seconds to fail and the Scripting object takes .003 seconds to fail. If I do the Scripting object first, it takes 4.5 seconds to fail and DIRECTORY() take .001.

>So overall, you're right, it doesn't really speed it up that much. Windows must be caching the access. If I wait about 10 seconds between the tries, they both take their respective times to fail, so the Scripting object is faster, it's just not instant.
Oh, crap. I should've tested the order. Sorry Peter
