Hi Everyone,

Can someone help me out with this code to create a directory structure? This program doesn't compile right now.
Is there any better way to create a directory using mapinfo? I copied this code from a web-link.

Declare sub CreateNewDirectory(NewDirectory As String)
Declare Sub Main
Type SECURITY_ATTRIBUTES

nLength As Integer
lpSecurityDescriptor As Integer
bInheritHandle As Logical
End Type

Declare Function CreateDirectory Lib "kernel32" Alias "CreateDirectoryA" (ByVal lpPathName As String,
lpSecurityAttributes As SECURITY_ATTRIBUTES) As Integer

Sub Main
Dim mydir as String


mydir = "C:\Temp\vbtest"

Call CreateNewDirectory(mydir)
End Sub


Sub CreateNewDirectory(NewDirectory As String)
Dim sDirTest As String
Dim i_var as integer
Dim iFlag as SmallInt
Dim SecAttrib As SECURITY_ATTRIBUTES
Dim bSuccess As logical
Dim sPath As String
Dim iCounter As Integer
Dim sTempDir As String
iFlag = 0


sPath = NewDirectory

If ( Right$(sPath, Len(sPath)) <> "\" )Then
sPath = sPath & "\"
End If

iCounter = 1

Do Until InStr(iCounter, sPath, "\") = 0
iCounter = InStr(iCounter, sPath, "\")
sTempDir = Left$(sPath, iCounter)
sDirTest = PathToDirectory$(sTempDir)
iCounter = iCounter + 1
'create directory
i_var = &HO0
SecAttrib.lpSecurityDescriptor = i_var
SecAttrib.bInheritHandle = False
SecAttrib.nLength = Len(SecAttrib)
bSuccess = CreateDirectory(sTempDir, SecAttrib)
Loop
End Sub
