Hi
I need to make a empty folder in the Data folder on the server. Is there a way to this in Lotusscript?

Look at the mkdir statement.Of course, the agent signer need to have access to perform restrictive functions. Make sure you understand the security implications of what you are doing
I most cases I don’t see a need to create folders in the Data directory, use a directory outside the Domino structure instead.
My advise would be not to do it.

HI
Thank you for the response. This code is not for a scheduled agent. it will be placed under an action button in an application. Will the mkdir then also work?

If you are running the agent with the web users credentials, then it depends on what rights that user has.

If I can expand a bit on Carl’s post, if the app is Notes client based, then:
If the code runs under the user’s credentials, then mkdir works on the user’s system unless you’re allowing them to map drives on the Domino server and if you’re doing that, well then you are well and completely hosed! 
If the code is in an agent, then make sure the agent ‘runs on server’ and the agent signers is allowed to make directories.
