Does anyone know a VBA that will create a folder called Data Import into my C: if its not already created?
 

Excel Facts

Test for Multiple Conditions in IF?
Use AND(test, test, test, test) or OR(test, test, test, ...) as the logical_test argument of IF.
.
.

Do it like this:

Code:
Sub MakeDirectory()
  Const strDIR As String = "C:\Data Import"
  If Dir$(strDIR, vbDirectory) = vbNullString Then
    MkDir strDIR
  End If
End Sub

An alternative method - will create the folder if it doesn't exist, and not create it if it does:
Code:
'// ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
'// Procedure : CreateFolder | Sub
'// Author    : DarkSprout
'// Purpose   : Will Recursively Build A Directory Tree
'// ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Sub CreateFolder(Folder)
On Error Resume Next
Dim objFSO As Object: Set objFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
    If Folder <> "" Then
        If Not objFSO.FileExists(objFSO.GetParentFolderName(Folder)) Then
            Call CreateFolder(objFSO.GetParentFolderName(Folder))
        End If
        objFSO.CreateFolder (Folder)
    End If
End Sub


Sub Test()


    CreateFolder "S:\Bartrup-CookD\AFolder"


End Sub
