I'd really like to be able to do this on the fly, rather than instructing the user to check if a directory exists and create it if it doesn't. I have several apps that do this, but I haven't found anything that lets me do an MD, MKDIR or MAKEDIR from inside of FP.

As long as the application is properly installed on the user's computer and you issue the SET LIBRARY command, works fine. My old FPW stuff ran an exe on the server that loaded foxtools. Never had a problem with using the library (and I used it extensively).

Totally up to you, Pete.
