Create multiple folders in automator

Question

i cant seem to crack this there seem to be many applescripts out there but cant find one as basic as my needs, am trying to create a subfolder system within a folder to sort out work, id like to be able to do the following:
tell automator to create x folders within folder with prefix xyz + sequential numbering ie. project001 project002 etc.
i know it sounds basic and probably is but have been googling away without any joy and the create folder option in automator only makes one at a time which defeats the point.Have also tired the get items and rename but it doesnt want to change folders. any and all help greatly appreciated

Answer 1

this is easily handled by apple script action.
say the following will work.
1. get selected (or specified) finder items.
put the folder where you want to create all these subfolders here.
2. run apple script
<pre style="
font-family: Monaco, 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;
font-size: 10px;
margin: 0px;
padding: 5px;
border: 1px solid #000000;
width: 720px;
color: #000000;
background-color: #ADD8E6;
overflow: auto;"
title="this text can be pasted into the Script Editor">
on run {input, parameters}
repeat with i from 1 to 10
tell application "Finder"
make new folder at input with properties {name:"xyz" & i}
end tell
end repeat
end run</pre>
the above makes 10 subfolders. adjust that as you like.
