Does any one know the command line that is executed
when the "Create New Folder" button is clicked?
Or also, 'New-->Folder'.

I know that it's the "shell32.dll" file that is called and
invoked is "SHCreateDirectory".

Thanks.

Do you mean the equivalent DOS command? It's either one of the two
following commands:

MKDIR [Drive:]path
MD [Drive:]path

Why would you even want to know this?

Very few and far between function calls can be executed from the command-line (using
Rundll32.exe), so few, that it's like looking for a needle in the proverbial
haystack!

You would be better off looking to a "shell-helper" tool like nircmd.exe which *can*
execute the shell create directory function for you, amongst a lot of other things
besides.

You can download 'nircmd.exe' from :

http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/nircmd.zip

If you don't have an answer then don't respond.
And don't respond with opinion.

Sorry, but you haven't a clue what I've asked.

Have you even considered how badly your question is phrased? A little
background might have gotten you just what you needed. Tim Meddick may
well have given you the most relevent of the answers given so far, but
your snippy egocentric responses are hurting you as far as getting good
information goes now. The other responders weren't wrong either, in the
sense that they probably tried to provide the best info they could.
Instead of your boorish tactics, a "no, what I meant was ... " would
have helped you a lot.
You are positive you know where it's located, so now I suspect you'll
get to figure out the rest of it on your own too unless you find the
right kind soul who guesses correctly at what you really want to know.

HTH,

Twayne`

I was trying to be helpful.

But as your over-reactive answer has put me off, I promise not to respond to *any*
further posts set by yourself.
