  Private Sub KBCommandHandler()

        'MsgBox("Trykkede KBCommand")

        Dim MyFolderParent As Folder = mDocSvc.GetFolderByPath("$/MonsunVaultFiler/Ordre")

        Dim MyFolderName As String

        MyFolderName = "PROJEKT-ABC"

        Dim MyFullFolderName As String

        MyFullFolderName = (MyFolderParent.FullName & "/" & MyFolderName)

        Try

            'Check if the folder exist

            Dim MyFolderId As Long = mDocSvc.GetFolderByPath(MyFullFolderName).Id

            If MyFolderId.ToString > 0 Then

                'MsgBox("Projekt folder findes allerede")

                MsgBox("Folder already exist")

                Exit Try

            End If

        Catch ex As Exception

            'Check if the folder exist

            'MessageBox.Show(ex.ToString(), "Projektfolder findes ikke")

            Dim MyNewFolder As Folder = mDocSvc.AddFolder(MyFolderName, MyFolderParent.Id, False)

            Dim MyNewSubFolder0 As Folder = mDocSvc.AddFolder("00-Konfigurator", MyNewFolder.Id, False)

              MsgBox("Folder was created")

        End Try

    End Sub

If your code running as a Vault Client Extension and you Implement the IExtension Interface you can set the Property

ForceRefresh = true from the Context-Object. The Context Object are stored in the

CommandItemEventArgs in the Execute-Event from the CommandItem Object...

Hope this help

Dim

KBCmdItem AsNewCommandItem("KBCommand", "KB Command")

 

AddHandler KBCmdItem.Execute, AddressOf KBCommandHandler

You must change the Method signatur 'KBCommandHandler' to

  Private Sub KBCommandHandler(ByVal s As Object, ByVal e As CommandItemEventArgs)
  

the you can access over e.Context the Property. Look at the SDK 'Hello World' sample. Note this code is for Vault 2012 i can't say if it has change in recent API versions.
