MD cPath | MKDIR cPath |
Parameters
- cPath
- Specifies a directory or a path (with a drive designator and directories). If cPath is a directory without a drive designator, the directory is created as a subdirectory of the current Microsoft Visual FoxPro default directory.
Remarks
Visual FoxPro generates an error message if you attempt to create a directory that already exists.
Example
The following example uses MKDIR to create a new directory named mytstdir
, then CHDIR is used to change to the new directory. GETDIR(В ) is used to display the directory structure, and then RMDIR is used to remove the newly created directory. GETDIR(В ) is used to display the directory structure again.
