This is probably quite simple to do but my knowledge of batch and vbs is a little shallow to say the least.
ideally, what i'd like to do is:
1. Right click in the explorer pane and go to 'New'
2. In the 'New' menu would be a command called 'Project Folder' say.
this command would be for a group of folders in this sort of format:
00000 Project Title\ArcGIS
00000 Project Title\Excel
00000 Project Title\General
00000 Project Title\Superseded
00000 Project Title\ArcGIS\Data
00000 Project Title\ArcGIS\Figures
00000 Project Title\General\Programming
00000 Project Title\General\Technical Notes
the '00000 Project Title' bit can be static, it's just the sub directories that i need creating.
so if i happened to be in 'C:\TEMP' and 'right clicked > new > folder structure', i would then have 'C:\TEMP\00000 Project Title\ArcGIS\Data', etc.
I know you can use md/mkdir in command prompt along with %1 but unless i copy that script to the directory i want to create the folders in, it's not saving me any time.
Does anyone have any ideas or suggestions on how to achieve this?
