Thanks I read your other subsequent message too, about the error, and noticed you solved. So, you *can* work out by gambas code, and your task is done. This is not a gambas suggestion, but in the end a mkdir -p is cleaner, easier, and faster... Right after a mkdir -p ... you can test for the directory existance, to see if all went well.

Re: [Gambas-user] Please help with directory problem
You could try defining a integer variable to keep track of your array Here is your code with a slight modification... not tested... but try it PUBLIC SUB Button2_Click() DIM sHak AS String DIM haks AS NEW String[300] DIM hak2 AS String DIM crtdir AS String DIM i as Integer sHak = /home/kari/ulkoiset/sdi1/debian_src/ ftp.fi.debian.org/debian/pool/main/g/gimp/ crtdir = /home/kari/backup_work/cdroot/ haks = Split(sHak, /) ' FOR EACH hak2 IN haks FOR i = 0 to Haks.Count - 1 ' crtdir = crtdir / hak2 crtdir = crtdir / haks[i] PRINT crtdir SHELL mkdircrtdir 'PRINT hak2 'PRINT crtdir NEXT END See if that works On Thu, Oct 30, 2008 at 3:24 PM, Kari Laine [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi All, still making my homebrew backup-program.
