EXECUTE cmd.exe /C mkdir -p "\\networkfolder"

has anyone had success creating folders on network drives via UNC or mapped drives?

I have v11.2 SR13 and v12Sr1 and no luck in either.

I tried the vQuotes = ""; as well as enabled Admin Override Security have Give System Access when I refresh from desktop.

No success.

works fine from .bat file, directly on command prompt and even Windows Explorer but not otherwise in QV Desktop

In general mkdir per execute worked: Re: Is it possible to create a batch file in the Qlikview Script. maybe it's helpful to create a complete statement as string to execute them and to log the answer of the execution, like in this statement:

LET vExecString = 'cmd.exe /c XCOPY $(vFromDir)$(vFileToCopy) $(vToDir) /Y/Z/F >>  ' & '$(vLogFileName)';

EXECUTE $(vExecString);
