Generate folders from spreadsheet?
#2
It can be done fairly simply, probably.

How many lines are we talking about?
Are you trying to recursively create directories (dirs within dirs) or is it a flat structure?

If it were me, I'd just prepend "mkdir" to a concatenated form of "name + zip";, copy it all and paste into a shell (after changing to the destination parent directory). If the resultant folder names have spaces, I would surround them with dbl quotes, like so:

mkdir "name 00812";

If the above all sounds Greek to you, then there might be other GUI solutions that someone else could post.
