Create folders from list vb/macro?
 
I am a novice. I need to create about two hundred folders in a specific
folder on an external drive. I have a list of the names for these folders in
an excel file. For example, Sheet1, A1 says Folder_Name, and the list of
names is in A2 thru A200. Anyone have code that will create these folders for
me?

Thanks!

Sherri,

No need to post multiple places: here is my reply from programming:

With that sheet active:

Sub MakeFolders()
Dim myC As Range
For Each myC In Range("A2", Cells(Rows.Count, 1).End(xlUp))
MkDir "D:\Foldername\" & myC.Value
Next myC
End Sub

HTH,
