yes, but have you tried directly creating a multi-level path?

I just happened to do that since I'm currently working on that deployment
issue:)  You might recognize the error handler look & feel:)

Does anyone know if the file scripting object has the ability to just create
a directory path directly?  If I try to create (for example) C:\Test\Backup
and c:\test exists, then it creates Backup underneath it.  However if Test
doesn't exist it just errors.  I am going to have to build a function to
parse the directories and build them up one at a time if the FS object can't
directly do this.  It seems like a natural but I can't find it.
