Hi,

I wish to create 100 folders in c drive, the folders should be named as
names written in range a1:a100

i tried somenthing like this

Sub AnewOne()
MkDir "C:\Kevin"
MkDir "C:\Jack"

End Sub

I am sure there is a better way. please hepl..

Sub MakeDirectories()
Dim n As Integer
n = Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Row
For i = 1 To n
MkDir (Cells(i, 1).Value)
Next
End Sub

I'm going to guess that the path is not included with the names in the
cells...

Sub MakeDirectories()
Dim n As Integer
n = Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp).Row
For i = 1 To n
MkDir "c:\" & Cells(i, 1).Value
Next
End Sub

Also note I removed the parentheses from around the argument to MkDir...
doesn't hurt in this case, but using them when they are not required by
syntax can cause errors in a lot of cases.
