is there a utility or a simple batch file type program that can build and rename folders from a text file list of names?

and if there is a file i want in each of those folders is there an easy way to include it?

i usually do these sort of things the hard way but i have over 1000 of these and i'd like to not make it my full-time job :)

thanks for your input.

I've done this sort of thing with Excel and VBA macros. Considering the hours spent manually on a task like this it might be worth the time to learn. I can dig them out if you're interested and send you some examples.

You could trial the personal version of this software and see if it does what you want:
