For loops and/or the "set /a" command. Google for it :P

Hi

Solved!!!

Didnt think google was my friend on this but here is the solution

In excel colum B enter folder names, In column A enter md

md 112
md 113
md 114 etc....

Save as default, then rename the extension to BAT
copy the file to the folder you wish to create these folders and run

Good trick!!

Never heard of using a excel file to do this, good to know.

An easy way could be to use loops as well. This works since you are just adding one to each number. If you had to create 1 folder for each state (50 folderrs) then the loop isn't going to work. The loop would probably take less time than excel, but is also going to require a little more thinking.

Like Tiersten alluded to...

FOR /L %%D IN (108,1,374) DO md %%D
