Hello All

Please can anyone advise how to create Folders over a network?

Locally, since mkdir() only works within the current Folder, I've written a
function which creates folders along the chain:-
Eg To create C: \ folder1 \ folder2 \ folder3
it firstly makes C: the current Drive,
then creates folder1 & makes it the current Folder,
then creates folder2 & makes it the current Folder,
etc

This works ok on Local Drives, but fails across a network.

Eg a network folder might be:-
\\ networkpc\folder1
with two \s at the start & no colon.

Since setdisk() takes an integer for the drive letter, I don't know where to
start, whether to change to the Network drive or whatever.

Please can anyone help?
Regards Al.
