Thanks a lot!!

I tried it and got no error messages and the folders were created. However there was no visible shortcut at the desktop. Any clue why..?

Another issue, would it be possible to set the security for this folders so any file put in there, even by administrators, can be read and modified by any user later? (I.e. all users have full rights..)

thanks for comments on this too.

regards jake
