Creating directory Tree, Access 2002, Windows XP

I am trying to set up code to automatically build a tree of empty directories
using VBA in MS Access. Being a fairly new programmer... I have spent
considerable time searching web data, but seem to be just circling close to a
solution.

Here's the set-up. I will use a simple Access database to collect folder
and sub folder names that a team will want to use a directory structure
standard for a given development project. I want to read from that list to
create the directories.

At this point, (thanks to some very generous code provided out on the web) I
have an explorer window opening up and can select the starting directory from
there. I can do a basic mkdir to that path for a single new directory, but
for some reason I am dead heading on setting up the loop structure to read
through the records and build the directories.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Might be quicker to shell xcopy with the /e switch and a filespec that
nothing matches.
