FolderExists Method

[This is preliminary documentation and subject to change]

Returns True if a specified folder exists; False if it does not.

object.FolderExists(folderspec)

Arguments

object

Required. Always the name of a FileSystemObject.

folderspec

Required. The name of the folder whose existence is to be determined. A complete path specification (either absolute or relative) must be provided if the folder isn't expected to exist in the current folder.

The following example illustrates the use of the FileExists method.

function ReportFolderStatus(fldr)
{
   var fso, s = fldr;
   fso = new ActiveXObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject");
   if (fso.FolderExists(fldr))
      s += " exists.";
   else 
      s += " doesn't exist.";
   return(s);
}
