MkDir with If close

[frotaru]

Value of range A1 is C:\test\01.01

MkDir range(“A1”).value

The folder it will create is 01.01

I want to know if it’s possible to create an IF close to this MkDir function that will not return any error msg

Something like if folder 01.01 exists than create other with name 02.01 .. if 02.01 exists than create 03.01 and so on


If xx.01 exists than create (xx+1).01

But xx+1 cannot be grather than 31 xx < or = 31

Can anyone help me with this pls ????
Thank you all

It may not be perfect, but maybe this would help:

Sub test()
Dim x As Integer

' save the first portion of the value in A1 to variable
x = Left(Range("A1").Value, 2)

Do
    ' if error occurs, code continues
    On Error Resume Next
    
    'attempt to create the directory
    MkDir "C:\test\" & Format(x, "00") & ".01"
    
    ' if MkDir did not return an error
    ' (was able to create folder), exit the loop
    If Err.Number = 0 Then Exit Do
    
    ' If MkDir *did* return an error (folder already exists)
    ' reset error trapping
    Err.Clear
    'increase x by 1
    x = Format(x + 1, "00")
Loop 'loop and try to create folder named for new x value

End Sub

Something like this perhaps.

Sub NewDir()
Dim strPath As String
Dim pos As Long
    
    strPath = Range("A1")
    
    If Dir(strPath, vbDirectory) <> "" Then
        pos = InStr(strPath, ".")
        strPath = Left(strPath, pos) & Format(Mid(strPath, pos + 1) + 1, "00")
    End If
    MkDir strPath
    
    Range("A1") = strPath
    
End Sub
