Hi All,

I have a code to create a folder onto the desktop but I would like to know how I can insert a file, upon the execution of the code, automatically from the code into the newly created folder?

VBA Code:
Sub CreateFolders()

  Dim sPath As String, sMain As String, sFolder As String
  Dim i As Long
 
  sPath = CreateObject("WScript.Shell").SpecialFolders("Desktop")
  sMain = sPath & "\" & Sheets(1).Range("A1").Value
    
  If Dir(sMain) = "" Then
    MkDir sMain

'Add file Test.pdf from "C:\MISC\Test.pdf" 

  End If

 
End Sub

For example, if I have a file named "Test.pdf" into the folder creation, if I tell the code where the file is on my computer.

Please let me know, if you can help me.

Thank you,
pinaceous
 
Hi Michael,

Sorry about that!

It works even with the parenthesize!
