Default Create folder, text file and vbs script from data in excel

Hi,

I have been tasked with creating a folder, a text file and a vba script from
an excel spreadsheet and cannot figure out how to do this. I'm very much a
novice at writing macros in excel and need a lot of help in doing this.

The excel spreadsheet will be set up in such a way that then will be one
column filled with entry numbers (eg. 1, 2, 3,..., n) and the second column
filled by entry names (eg. GHWYX4-RT5, GHVT3-RT94,... or something to that
effect). What I need to do is create individual folders with the name of each
of the entries in the second column (eg. GHWYX4-RT5), then fill each folder
with a text file with some constant name (eg. mytext, every text file must
have the same name) that contains the first entry in the row, followed by the
second entry, separated by a "," (eg. 1, GHWYX4-RT5). There also needs to be
no quotations in the text file, it must be exactly in the format I stated. In
addition to this, I need to create the vbs file that contains a constant
script for all of the vbs files, as well as a constant name for all of the
vbs files.

I've been searching for quite a while and so far have only been able to
create folders from the second column in the list, however with my method I
don't really see how I would even create the text files or vba in the folders
I created, nor do I even really understand how to create text files or vba
from excel.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks very much,
Matt
