   var fso, f, n, s = "";

   fso = new ActiveXObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject");

   f = fso.GetFolder(pathspec);

   n = 0;

   if (f.IsRootFolder)

      s = "The specified folder is the root folder."

   else

   {

      do

      { 

         f = f.ParentFolder;

         n++;

      }

      while (!f.IsRootFolder)

      s = "The specified folder is nested " + n + " levels deep."

   }

   return(s);

}

Function DisplayLevelDepth(pathspec)

   Dim fso, f, n

   Set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")

   Set f = fso.GetFolder(pathspec)

   If f.IsRootFolder Then

      DisplayLevelDepth = "The specified folder is the root folder."

   Else

      Do Until f.IsRootFolder

         Set f = f.ParentFolder

         n = n + 1

      Loop

      DisplayLevelDepth = "The specified folder is nested " & n & " levels deep."

   End If

End Function
