Afternoon all,

Im trying to create a code that will automatically check for the correct monthly folder and if it doesnt exist it would create it.
As it will change every month I would like to use a variable method but I keep getting an error.

Code:
Sub FindFolder()


Dim fso As Object
Const FLDR_NAME As String = "\\Intranet.barcapint.com\dfs-emea\BWGroup\BWData\Kyc\FATCA\BAU\"
 
Set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
 
If Not fso.FolderExists(FLDR_NAME) Then
    fso.CreateFolder (FLDR_NAME)
End If
 
 

End Sub

is there any way to solve this?

Thanks in advance.
Stuart

How to fill five years of quarters?
Type 1Q-2023 in a cell. Grab the fill handle and drag down or right. After 4Q-2023, Excel will jump to 1Q-2024. Dash can be any character.
Does this do what you want?

Code:
Sub FindFolder()
    Const FLDR_NAME As String = "c:\temp\test009b.old" 
    If Dir(FLDR_NAME, vbDirectory) = "" Then MkDir FLDR_NAME
End Sub
