Origin Version (7.0):
Operating System:XP PRO

Hi
I have a situation where i need to create sunfolders in a project. But before creating i need to verify if a subfolder already exists by that name, so that i wont be creating duplicates of the subfolder. If the subfolder exists i will activate that folder and do operations with in that and if it does not i will create one. how do i go about doing this ?

cheers
ravi

Recall that the IsValid() method can be used on many objects, so you could use code like the following:

Folder fld = Project.RootFolder;
Folder fldsub = fld.Subfolders("MyFolder");
if( fldsub.IsValid() )
printf("Found the subfolder of root named 'MyFolder'\n");
else
{
printf("Not found. Creating ...'MyFolder'\n");
fldsub = fld.AddSubfolder("MyFolder");
}
