new directory permission

[slipstick]

I'm developing a vi that will create a directory and then immediately create a text file inside the directory. The attached vi is what I have so far. I can create the folder, but any vi I use to write to the folder generates error 8 about file permissions. I have checked and set write permissions on the parent folder. Any ideas?

I'm using winxp pro with LabVIEW 7.1

Hi Tay,

what you try to do is to write the data to the folder. Use the build path vi to add a filename to the created folder path. This should be work.

Hi Tay,

now i see that is not the only problem. If the first folder "Power Box Results" doesn´t exist, you have to create this one first. See the attachment.

Hope it helps.
