Create folders automatically with a bat file


I worked until 3:15 AM last night, so no tip unfortunately, other than perhaps to always push back when attorneys give you too much work to do.

This night's tip is an easy way to create a folder structure with a batch file. In the folder where you want the new folders to be created, right click and create a text file. The make a list like this one:

md "Kenya\lion" md "Botswana\tiger" md "Zambia\giraffe" md "Burundi\zebra"

. . . save the file and change the extension to 'bat'. Double-click and the folder structure will be automatically created.
