Macro that will create a new directory?

I'm trying to write a Word macro that will create a new directory on my C:
drive. Is this even possible?

Type "mkdir" into the editor, press F1.

Hmmmm, MKDIR is in my <cite>IBM BASIC Reference (Third Edition, May 1984)</cite>.

I do have a First Edition, at home, but I don't think they'd invented subdirectories
yet when that was written.

Paging through the one at hand, ah yes, CHDIR/MKDIR/RMDIR were all added at BASIC
2.0 (c1983)!

TMI? ;-)

That's sort of the way I remembered it, but I no longer have any references
to cite.
