Macro Help: Open All Drawing or/and Part or_and Assembly In Folder and Save As

I have created a macro  that is supposed to do the following;

 

-Open a Folder Selection Box (where the user selects a folder)

-Open all  files in the selected folder (one by one, one after the other)

-Check to see if there is a folder called "customproperties" in the directory, if not then create one

-Save the open  file as a pdf/step, building the save as name from custom properties in the referenced model

-Close the file

-Move on to next one

 

Now in my code below (and I have attached the macro file because there is the browse folder module attached) the macro will complete one file, close the file and show the msgbox if that "customproperties" folder exists, if the folder does not exist it will create the folder, save the open file, close the drawing and fail on "filename = Dir" (run-time error '5')

 

If I comment out the "If Dir(saveFolder2, vbDirectory) = "" Then MkDir saveFolder2" it runs perfectly and saves the drawings all in the selected directory.

 

Can anyone please help me solve this? I need Yours help. I dont konw what is happend. Where did I make a mistake?
