Hello Richmond,
you have to use the windows shell command attrib
e.g. attrib +H <mypath\file>
use it in livecode with the shell() function
e.g.
put the directory into tPathAndFilename
replace "/" with "\" in tPathAndFilename
-- if tPathAndFilename contains spaces then
-- put quote & tPathAndFilename & quote into tPathAndFilename
put "attrib +H" && tPathAndFilename into tCmd
put shell(tCmd) into tErr
Best

On Linux and Mac (a.k.a. kinky UNIX) one can hide a folder
by starting its name with a '.', and this means handling
invisible folders in Livecode is very simple.
HOWEVER, from what I have read an invisible folder on Windows
is not invisible by dint of its name but by setting a property of
the older.
SO; can one create an invisible folder in Windows using Livecode?
Richmond.
