After the user tells it to, I need my MFC program to create a new folder in the specified directory how can I do this? I cannot find any reference to creating a new folder in the msdn. Thanks

How about trying to use the Standard Run-Time Library function:
e.g.
mkdir("C:\\abc.txt");

... gotta check MSDN... ''coz long time not playing with programming.

Thanks for the reply but it doesnt seem to work,

if i put :: before it i get the message that its not a member of global namespace rather than straight up undeclared identifier. At least now ive got something i can read up on so I''ll try working around that.

Thanks

Never mind Ive found a function that will do it.
CreateDirectory(). I knew there would be a simple function fo this.

Thanks DerekSaw, I was looking in the msdn for folders but you made me look for Directory. Cheers
