Title: IFile.ParentFolder Property
Post by: José Roca on July 14, 2008, 03:46:35 AM


The following code illustrates the use of the Path property with a ParentFolder object:


#INCLUDE "windows.inc"
#INCLUDE "scrrun.inc"

DIM fso AS IFileSystem
DIM pFile AS IFile
DIM pFolder AS IFolder

' Create an instance of the FileSystemObject
fso = NEWCOM "Scripting.FileSystemObject"
' Get a reference to the IFile interface
pFile = fso.GetFile(UCODE$("C:\MyPath\MyFile.txt"))
' Get a reference to the parent's IFolder interface
pFolder = pFile.ParentFolder
' Get and display the name of the parent folder
MSGBOX ACODE$(pFolder.Name)
