This may work to create sequentially numbered dirs in the root. Not sure what you need to do beyond that.
::=== SEQdir#.bat c: cd \ for /f %%D in ('dir /od/ad/b') do set newest=%%D set pre=%newest:~0,2% set /a num=%newest:~2,3% set /a num+=1 md %pre%%num% :: DONE
If at first you don't succeed, you're about average.
