Answer 1

Please provide your code. It's a guessing game without seeing the code.

Answer 2

The code snippet is below:

using

(SPSite _site = new SPSite(<url of the site>))

{

using (SPWeb _web = _site.OpenWeb())

{

_web.AllowUnsafeUpdates =

true;

SPList SpList1 = _web.Lists[_list];

#region

DateFolder

string CreateDay=DateTime.Today.Day.ToString();

string CreateMonth=DateTime.Today.Month.ToString();

string CreateYear=DateTime.Today.Year.ToString() ;

string auditFileName = CreateDay + '-' + CreateMonth + '-' + CreateYear;

SPListItem auditFolder =

null;

bool folderExists = false;

for (int i = 0; i < SpList1.Folders.Count; i++)

{

if (SpList1.Folders[i].Folder.Name == auditFileName)

{

auditFolder = SpList1.Folders[i];

folderExists =

true;

}

}

if (!folderExists) // The folder does not exist so we create it and add the item

{

auditFolder = SpList1.Items.Add(SpList1.RootFolder.ServerRelativeUrl, SPFileSystemObjectType.Folder, auditFileName);

auditFolder.Update();

}
