How to create a folder in the file system?

Hi All,
How to create a normal folder in my PC's file system in a specific path?

Host just passes commands to the OS; the simplest way to try would be playing a little bit around in the shell to figure out what's not working...
C:\>dir "I am"*
Volume in drive C is System
Volume Serial Number is 5C03-B54D
Directory of C:\
File Not Found
C:\>cmd /c mkdir "c:\I am a directory"
C:\>dir "I am"*
Volume in drive C is System
Volume Serial Number is 5C03-B54D
Directory of C:\
09/21/2010  02:38 AM    <DIR>          I am a directory
               0 File(s)              0 bytes
               1 Dir(s)     509,628,416 bytes free
C:\>cmd /c mkdir "c:\I am a directory"
A subdirectory or file c:\I am a directory already exists.
C:\>or with the host built-in
host('cmd /c mkdir "'||full_path||'"');But first you should check if the directory already exists as mkdir will throw an error if it exists as you can see.
cheers

  • How to create search path for the file on the desktop..

    hello experts..
          I have used gui_upload module to upload the data from flatfile to the internal table, in that how can i create search path for the file selection in the selection screen, also please help me the code to update the ztable.
    thanks

    HI
      If iam not wrong you want to select a file from a location that you don't know so if this is ur problem then use the function module
    F4_FILENAME
    this FM helps to locate and select the desired file from the system.
    Sample code that you can check is
    How to get windows filename
    PARAMETERS: lv_file LIKE rlgrap-filename.
    Method 1
        CALL FUNCTION u2019KD_GET_FILENAME_ON_F4u2019
        EXPORTING
        MASK = u2019,.txt,.*u2019
        STATIC = u2019Xu2019
        CHANGING
        FILE_NAME = LV_FILE.
    Method 2

  • How to create repository folders to various file systems

    Hi
    How to create repository folders for various filesystems,and allow the user to do access those files(checkin/checkout)
    Prasad

    Please explain further.
    You can create a file system repository for each of the file systems.
    The document approval workflow is a functionality which is already available withing the portal.
    However, be aware that the file system repository does not support custom properties and versioning.
    In that case you might want to use a CM respository in the FSDB mode which lets you store metadata on the portal and the actual files on the file server.

  • A simple question: how to create a folder in the active root

    I have a simple little issue:
    When I go in the "Finder" down the folder chain to what ever place with the intention to create a new sub folder, using "file" + "new folder" the system always create the new folder in the main root versus creating it where I'm standing (highlighted root) in the folder chain.
    Any idea how to make the new folder directly under the highlighted root?
    Thx

    If you are in column view a new folder will be created in the selected folder, but if you are using the other views you need to actually open the folder. The path shown at the top of a Finder window will show the target of the window (which is where a new folder will be created).

  • How to create a 2 digit (gigabyte) file system to be used for 3 digit tiny size files and not running out of inodes

    I have a 83Gb file system that apparently is not full, but its actually full, because I have run out of inodes, and I have 10 million files in there, so I want to create another that will cater for this inode issue. My question is if I use the
    newfs -T
    option will it work? As its only going to be 90Gb?

    You use probably a UFS file system, right ? Then in this case, use the "-i" option with a value less as 8192. 8192 is the default value for a UFS filesystem that is between 3GB and 1 TB size.
    But if you want to store 10M of files, UFS will be limited to 1M per TB : 64-bit: Support of MultiterabyteUFS File Systems (System Administration Guide: Devices and File Systems)
    In this case, use instead UFS a ZFS filesystem that supports 2^48 entries !!!

  • How to create a password for the pdf file

    In Adore Acrobat XI, how to create a password for the file? The help states going to Tools Menu and clicking on Protection tab - but there is no such option. In the file - properties - security screen, it shows the security details but does not allow to edit it.

    I think you may be mixing up two different products: Adobe Reader (free), and Acrobat ($$).

  • HT3384 In order to keep my files organized, I need to create separate "folders".  For some reason, I cannot find the instructions on how to create a folder in Pages.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Thank you.

    In order to keep each family members' documents organized, I need to create separate "folders".  I've seared the help section but to no avail.  I'm sure this is very easy for someone out there.  Any help is much appreciated.  Thank you.

    You can't created a folder in Pages. Here's what Help says about new folders: 
    To create a folder:
    Click the desktop (the background area of your screen) if you want to keep the new folder on the desktop; otherwise, open the window where you want to keep the folder.
    Choose File > New Folder.
    If the New Folder command is dimmed, you do not have permission to create a folder at the current location.
    To give the folder a new name, click to select it and press Return. Then type a name for the folder and press Return again.

  • Each time I reopen a folder the files get rearranged alphabetically, how do I stop this so the file arrangement in the folder stays the same?

    Each time I reopen a folder in OS X 10.8.4 the files get rearranged alphabetically, how do I stop this so the file arrangement in the folder stays the same?

    I might add that all the files are aliases. There are 40 altogether and I am aware I could create 10 sub-folders so I only have 4 aliases in each subfolder which would mean I only have to rearrange 4 aliases each time but this is still not ideal. I have been using Macs since the 1980's and up to now files have always stayed where you put them unless you selected Arrange By in the Finder View Menu.
