Creating Folder and Sub Folder

mlogan — Mon, 13 Aug 2018 20:24:22 GMT

Hi All,

I want to create a folder ('07 - 2018 JUL' which is dynamic based on the previous month) and a sub folder ('Personal') at the same time under the location 'C:\Temp\2018 - 2019'. I figured out the folder part, but don't know how to create a sub folder. Can any one help please. Thanks.

My ultimate folder hierarchy will be 'C:\Temp\2018 - 2019\07 - 2018 JUL\Personal'


DATA _NULL_;
  rootdir='C:\Temp\2018 - 2019';
  today=today();
  lastmonth=intnx('month',today,-1);
  dir1=catx(' ',put(month(lastmonth),z2.),'-',year(lastmonth),UPCASE(put(lastmonth,monname3.)));
  newdir1=dcreate(dir1,rootdir);
RUN;

Call DCREATE again with the PERSONAL name?

Function dcreate() creates all parent directories when you create the bottom one.
