Rename and Delete sub folders

Hi

I have folders on dropbox. as follows
C:\Users\Public\Dropbox\Client\DirectSales\EnvirpPacific.

My question is how can I using vba change the name or delete the folder EnviroPacific

I can change a root folder name
Dim strOldDirName As String
Dim strNewDirName As String
 
strOldDirName = "C:\Zmyfolder"

strNewDirName = "C:\Pfolder"
Name strOldDirName As strNewDirName

I get errors when I add Sub folders.

Any help would be appreciated

My apologies. With my example I got and error on the last line Name path not found although the path was or looked correct so I rewrote as follows

Dim strOldDirName As String
Dim strNewDirName As String

strOldDirName = "C:\FolderA\FolderB"

strNewDirName = "C:\FolderA\FolderC\"
Name strOldDirName As strNewDirName

This time no problems. Must have been a glitch in my first attempt

I will split the points
