Kondro Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 (edited) hello, I need to add something to a script i have for installing a program. after the install i need to create a directory on a drive other than c:\ if it exists or if not then create it on c:\. any ideas? so far this is what i have but it only checks for E:\ then if not exist create on c:\. I need to prioritise it and create the directory on the highest fixed drive letter but only one one drive. $var = DriveStatus( "e:\") If $var = ("FIXED") Then DirCreate("e:\Pro_work") Else DirCreate("c:\Pro_work") Edited February 22, 2011 by Kondro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Melba23 Posted February 22, 2011 Moderators Share Posted February 22, 2011 Kondro,Look at DriveGetDrive in the Help file. If you use the "FIXED" type parameter you will get a list of the drives in alphabetical order, so finding the highest is easy.

My problem is coding it to create the directories in the highest drive letter found and then end the function. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
