Create folder on a share

Former Member over 5 years ago

Hi All,

I would like to run this vbscript in a workflow transition but Shell Object does not work, anyone did it already ?

ParentFolder = "\server\sharedfolder\%PROPERTY_XXXX%"
set objShell = CreateObject("Shell.Application")
set objFolder = objShell.NameSpace(ParentFolder)
objFolder.NewFolder "%PROPERTY_XXXX%"

Thanks ;D

What's the use-case here? What are you trying to achieve?

Regards,

Craig.

Hi Craig,

Thanks for your answer, I would like to create a folder on a network share, name the folder like the name of property, when object is reaching a state in workflow.

I haven't tried using VBScript (not much new stuff is written using VBScript), but I would expect that it's possible at least with the Vault Application Framework. I would suspect that the main issue would be that it's unlikely that the account that the M-Files Server runs as has permissions to create folders in a remote network share.

Regards,

Craig.
