Tom,
Here is an eloquent method to check the existence of file or directory.
-- Example
SET VAR vBackupDir1 TEXT = 'XLS'
IF (CHKFILE(.vBackupDir1)) <> 1 THEN
MKDIR .vBackupDir1
ENDIF
There is no need to use extra steps and variables
to check the existence of file or directory.
Have fun!
Very Best Regards,
Razzak

I have been using an autobackup routine for
years on many different computers and never had
a problem until now. The only thing is that I
have put it on a computer with C is ssd and D
regular harddrive. Following is the code where
it hangs up. I create the backup folder if it
does not exist even though it does backup I get
a message 'Unable to create directory'

fine. I my error message related to ssd/regular harddrive
CLEAR VAR vdatafile
SET VAR vdatafile INTEGER = NULL
SET VAR vdatafile = (CHKFILE(.vbackdir1))
IF vdatafile <> 1 THEN
 MKDIR .vbackdir1
ENDIF
