mkdir

and

movefile

EIDT

directory = 'C:\pathWithExcelFiles\reference1';

if exist(directory,'dir') ~= 7
    mkdir(directory)
    movefile('C:\pathWithExcelFiles\reference1.xls',directory)
    movefile('C:\pathWithExcelFiles\otherfile.xls',directory)
end

could you explain more for example:

foldername is 'refrence1' and if doesn't exist make a folder with this name

[Walter Roberson]

copyfile() instead of movefile() then.
