Hi Chris,

    You can create a directory and create a text file in that directory from VB. Its very easy...Here is an example. For more information see VB help on Open, Close, Input, Output, Print # and Write.

MkDir ("d:\ng")
Open "d:\ng\Text.txt" For Output As #1
Print #1, "Hi Chris...wow...you created a text file..."
Close #1

Hope this helps,
