As an example. let's say that I want to check for the exisitence of apppath + '\Export' - and if the Export subfolder doesn't exist, then create it. What would be the best approach?

I don't know if this is the best but this is how I do it
Dim sDir as String
sDir = ATTACHMENTSDIR + rs("mydir") ' + "\"
If Dir$(sDir & "\nul") = "" Then
'On Error Resume Next
ChDrive ATTACHMENTSDRIVE: ChDir (ATTACHMENTSDIR): MkDir rs("myDir")
End If
