John,

Your absolutely right !

I *usually* do the following if I have to ensure a directory exists:

swpruncmd("MD &cMyDir",0,"",0)

using Blinker's swap function to create the directory -- whether the
directory exists or not. This is careless and lazy of me, but it always worked
with no problem *until* Win XP came along. Then the error occurred and 'kicked
up' my user's screen.

So, I fished around in my utilies until I came across the function
FT_MkDir(cMyDir) and another utility called isdir(cMyDir). A combination of
these along with my own MD(cMyDir) gives me what I want.

Thanks for the help !
