In VTS version 7.0 and later, MkDir can now create directories recursively, so that
MkDir("C:\one\two\three");
will create directory one (if it does not already exist), then create directory two (if it does not already exist), and then finally create directory three (if it does not already exist).
If Name is given as a relative path, it will be created below the VTS installation directory.
Example:
err = MkDir("C:\SAMPLE");
This creates the directory Sample on drive C.
err = MkDir("SAMPLE");
This creates the directory C:\VTS\SAMPLE
