The sample code described in this section provides a real-world example that demonstrates many of the features available in the FileSystemObject object model. This code shows how all the features of the object model work together, and how to use those features effectively in your own code.
Note that since this code is fairly generic, some additional code and a little tweaking are needed to make this code actually run on your machine. These changes are necessary because of the different ways input and output to the user is handled between Active Server Pages and the Windows Scripting Host.
To run this code on an Active Server Page, use the following steps:
Create a standard Web page with an .asp extension.
Copy the following sample code into that file between the <BODY>...</BODY> tags.
Enclose all the code within <%...%> tags.
Move the Option Explicit statement from its current position in the code to the very top of your HTML page, positioning it even before the opening <HTML> tag.
Place <%...%> tags around the Option Explicit statement to ensure that it's run on the server side.
Add the following code to the end of the sample code:
Sub Print(x)
Response.Write "<PRE><FONT FACE=""Courier New"" SIZE=""1"">"
Response.Write x
Response.Write "</FONT></PRE>"
End Sub
Main
The previous code adds a print procedure that will run on the server side, but display results on the client side. To run this code on the Windows Scripting Host, add the following code to the end of the sample code:
