vbscript "C:\\\\Folder" path issues

[davidam]

While testing my vb script to monitor a directory for new files, it works fine when the monitored directory is listed as follows:

strComputer = "."
strDirToMonitor = "C:\\\\Folder"

However, I need to monitor a subdirectory :

strComputer = "."
strDirToMonitor = "C:\Folder\Subfolder"

and the Windows Script Host will have none of it. Can someone show me how to write this subdirectory path so this will work?
Thank you

The above issue has been partially resolved by using a path like this:

"C:\\\\Folder\\\\Subfolder"

however, now I have a new issue. In my test, If I have the monitored folder on the C drive, a message box pops up when the monitored folder has changed. IF the subfolder is monitored, as above, then I get multiple message boxes. Would appreciate any suggestions. Thank you.
