Editing PDF/DWG-STEP Macro Code

If you take the code of the 5th message, it puts the files in the pdf directories Dwg and Step.
I think you're mixing brushes with the different versions of the macro.
Here is the example already mentioned above:

Indeed as much for me I didn't look at it well, sorry for all these exchanges!

I just have a quick note, the STEP folder is created in the Drawing folder, and I would like it to be created in the parts folder. Here is the tree structure of my files:
1-Assembly
2-Pieces / STEP
3-Drawing / PDF - /DWG

Adding something like this should be better (not tested):

'On revient un dossier en arrière puis on ajoute le dossier Pièces
sFilePath = Left(sModelFullPath, InStrRev(sModelFullPath, "\"))
sFilePath = sFilePath & "Pièces\"

The location where to add the code:

I get an error message with the message path not found with the line "MkDir sFilePath & "Step"" highlighted

If the parts folder does not exist, mkdir cannot create folders and subfolders in one command.

Surely one \ too much or less, what is the value of sFilePath just before?
If needed to verify it
added debug.print sFilepath, just below the previous 3 lines and look at the value in the "Execution" window via macro display editing

I feel like it's not going back because it's adding the parts folder to the drawing folders

Does the documents file always exist and is it always codified in the same way?
Basically, for example, is it this type of tree?
C:\xxxx\Parts
C:\xxxx\Drawings

Yes, the parts folder still exists with the same name "2 - Pieces"

Basically, not optimized and no check if the files already exist:

For it to work, you have to select " Microsoft Scripting Runtime " in the references:

I took the code from @sbadenis so I don't have the 3 path variables anymore

It's the same code only modified for the folder creation part.

On this part of code I have to change what for the macro to work?

'On revient un dossier en arrière puis on ajoute le dossier Pièces
sFilePath = Left(sModelFullPath, InStrRev(sModelFullPath, "\"))
sFilePath = sFilePath & "2 - Pièces\"
'On vérifie si le dossier de sauvegarde existe sinon création de ce dossier STEP
If Dir(sFilePath & "Step\", vbDirectory) = vbNullString Then
    MkDir sFilePath & "Step\"
End If
sFilePath = Left(sFilePath, InStrRev(sFilePath, "\", Len(sFilePath) - 1))
sFilePath = sFilePAth & "2 - Pièces\"

Great Thank you for everything
