Macer,
The sample code works without problems on my machine. It gives no error messages, and creates the directories in the Windows temp folder.
However, I should point out that VFP6 is not the only difference; I also use
Windows 98 rather than Win 2000.
Additional suggestions:
Use XCOPY (or a Windows API function) to copy an existing, empty, directory tree.
Ask other users about their experience with Win 2000 + VFP6 or VFP7.
HTH, Hilmar.
