How do I create a new folder

Can anyone tell me how I can create a folder programmatically, with a name
generated from the contents of a field?

Thanks.

PC Datasheet

From the Help file ----
Creates a new directory or folder.

Syntax

MkDir path

The required path argument is a string expression that identifies the
directory or folder to be created. The path may include the drive. If no
drive is specified, MkDir creates the new directory or folder on the current
drive.

Take a look at MKDir

MKDir "c:\JonB"

would make a directory called JonB just off of the root of C:

Thanks! Don't think I didn't look in the Help file first... a search for
"mkdir" says "No results found on Office Online"
