Solved Vbs Object required: '' (error on Line 5)(letter 1)

[marthijn99]

as it says in the title

Option Explicit
dim custFolder, folder

custFolder=InputBox("Type custom path")
Folder.CreateFolder "C:\" & custFolder & "folder1"

In line 5 it says

Folder.CreateFolder "C:\" & custFolder & "folder1"

It uses a method on the Folder variable but problem is that it was declared (on line 2) but never initialized to anything, hence the error.

What is lacking is creating the "file system object" before using it:

Set folder=CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
