If you see column B and C and it goes on till 10 or so on ....when I run the auto program should create the main folder/subfolders accordingly and incase if given path folder exist no need to create again.

Can anyone help with this requirement?
 

Excel Facts

Bring active cell back into view
Start at A1 and select to A9999 while writing a formula, you can't see A1 anymore. Press Ctrl+Backspace to bring active cell into view.
Sample code for you to test
- validity of folder name is not verified

Amend path to MF1, MF2 etc
fPath = "C:\Folder\subfolder"
Amend worksheet name
Set ws = Sheets("XXX")
VBA Code:
Sub CreateFolders()
    Dim fPath As String, p As String, p2 As String, rng As Range, cel As Range, ws As Worksheet, c As Long
    fPath = "C:\Folder\subfolder"
    Set ws = Sheets("XXX")
    Set rng = ws.Range("A4", ws.Range("A" & ws.Rows.Count).End(xlUp))
    On Error Resume Next
    For Each cel In rng
        p = fPath & "\" & cel
        If cel <> "" Then
            MkDir p
            For c = 1 To 50
                p2 = p & "\" & cel.Offset(, c)
                If Not p2 = p & "\" Then MkDir p2
            Next c
        End If
    Next cel
    On Error GoTo 0
End Sub

If you cannot make it work, post the amended code you are using and the actual worksheet range - and I will try to help resolve any issues
