Use the @File() with the D parameter.

Code:

%t = @file(C:\NotExist,D)
if @not(%t)
    Warn Directory C:\NotExist does not exist.
end

So the below should be legal or OK to use?


Code:

IF @NOT(@FILE(C:\folder\folder2,D))
Warn Directory C:\folder\folder2 does not exist.
DIRECTORY CREATE,C:\folder\folder2
END

You can use DIRECTORY CREATE even if the directory already exists - it won't do anything in that case.
