Then add the step to create that folder within the conditional.

It seems odd "creating" a folder that I KNOW already exists but to take your cue would adding this line work?
"if not f.exists then f.CreateAsFolder"?
I would test it myself, but I'm not at home. I'm actually at work right now (don't tell!).

Have a look at the LR to see the path to SpecialFolder.Documents. If it existed, you wouldn't have gotten the msg from my code.

The LR shows /home/user/Documents as the path and mine is /home/paulie/Documents. As a test I created a folder called "user" (in my home folder), copied my "Documents" folder to it and reran your code. I still get the error msg: "There is no documents folder.", even though there now is a valid path = /home/user/Documents/
