I want to check for the existence of files using FSO, but if the file path and/or name include an apostrophe, the program breaks. Anyone have a suggestion?
Example code:
Example code:
Code:
Set objFSO = Server.CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
If not objFSO.FileExists(strPath&strFile) Then
strErr=strErr & "<li>"&strFile&" does not exist.</li>"
Else
objFSO.Close
End If
Set objFSO = Nothing

try escaping any apostrophes with a slash, so try a replace on strFile to replace ' with \'

Replacing with an \' or with an '' doesn't work. Any other suggestions?

well, from what I can find out, the FSO should not have any problem with filenames containing an apostrophe, are you sure that is definitely what is causing the problem ?

From the Script Guy's Blog Incidentally, if you’re using the FileSystemObject (another way to work with files and folders), you don’t have to worry about this; the apostrophe doesn’t seem to bother the FileSystemObject. For example, if you want to know the size of Ken Myer’s Folder, use this code:
Set objFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set objFolder = objFSO.GetFolder("C:\Ken Myer’s Folder")
Wscript.Echo "Size: " & objFolder.Size
No escaping or other coding tricks required.

The code works perfectly on all folders/files except for those containing an apostrophe and/or an ampersand.
