Hi, using this as my code, for somereason it goes ok with no error messages but doesnt create a folder, confused! it works fine if i set the path to the C:\xxx\xxx but using the network name no joy, i have full rights to the drive.

        Dim newFOL As String

        newFOL = txtHrmRef & " - " & txtName & " - " & txtBenCode
        ChDir "\\resrslavingt002\u_datacentre"
