Hi there,

Yes, there is a way to get folder size using VB & FSO, firstly add reference to Scripting Runtime Engine, use the below code segment, hope it helps. Good luck & take care.

Dim objFSO As Object
Dim objFolder as Object
Dim i As Long

Set objFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set objFolder = objFSO.GetFolder("C:\Program Files")
i = objFolder.Size

Set objFolder = Nothing
Set objFSO = Nothing

This will return the size of the folder in bytes.
