How do I create a new directory for a file?

Use the MkDir command. Example syntax:

MkDir "C:\Test"

Hi, Charles.
From MS Access code, how do I create a new directory?

Say you have a directory on your C:\ drive named Sales and wanted to add a
new directory named Data in this directory. The VBA command would be:

MkDir "C:\Sales\Data"

Copy this line of code into a procedure in your VBA module and replace the
"C:\Sales\Data" string with the complete path of the new directory you desire
on your computer. Save the module, compile the code and run it.
