makefolder
PATH

The makefolder statement creates a new folder, and if necessary, also creates any enclosing folders needed to create the specified new folder.


Parameters

This statement has one parameter:

path – is a path and folder name of the new folder to be created (see Files and Folders for more information about file paths).


Description

This statement creates a new folder, and if necessary, also creates any enclosing folders needed to create the specified new folder. If a folder with that name already exists, the statement will do nothing.

This example creates a folder named Cambria. If necessary, it also creates the Dropbox, Projects, and 2014 folders.

makefolder "~/Dropbox/Projects/2014/Cambria"
Legacy MakeNewFolderStatement

In previous versions of Panorama (version 6 and before) the makefolder statement would not create any necessary enclosing folders, and a separate makenewfolder statement was included with that capability. For compatibility with existing databases the makenewfolder statement will work (it is an alias for the makefolder statement.)
