I am busy writing this app for our company. something that will just create folders and files so it doesn't have to be doesn't manuely.

Would i would like to do is create a modul and then in a form i would just call up that module to create the directory. I know how to create a dirctory in vb.net but..i would like to do something like this. I have a textbox and in that textbox we would enter in the file name. so in the button code i would call up the routing from the module an have it like this.

CreateDiretory(Path, name)

where creata directory would be my function

Can anyone please help me with this.
