Creating a hidden folder from Access

I

Hi,

I have packaged up my database using ADE and all has been working well. I
now want to deploy the next version, however as part of the deployment I
requrie additional folders to be avaialble on the PC's to which the DB will
be deployed. Whilst I can check if a folder is available and / or create
folders using VBA - Can you advise how I would create a hidden folder?

Thanks in advance.

To create a hidden folder called 'qwerty' off the root of c:

MkDir "c:\qwerty"
SetAttr "c:\qwerty", vbHidden
