Create folders on a shared drive with a macro
 

I would like a macro that would create a folder on one of our shared
drives and would name this folder based on what is in one of the cells
in the current worksheet. Does anyone have a clue how to do this?
Any help is appreciated.

Michael,

This creates a folder on the D drive.

Dim oFSO As Object
Dim oFolder As Object
Set oFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set oFolder = oFSO.CreateFolder("D:\" & ActiveSheet.Range("A1"))

Haven't tested on a shared drive, but as long as you have access, and the
drive is mapped, it should work.
