Exporting files into a created folder

I want to export files into a specific folder on the desktop. I am able to get all the files exported, but cannot fine a way to create the folder on the desktop first.

The script needs to work for both PC & MAC users. The folder name will always be the same.

I know there are plug-ins, but does anyone have a script that can work in native FM10?

Thanks.

There is no native FileMaker script step to create folders. It needs to be done with a plug-in or by running an operating system script like AppleScript on the Mac.

Anything that uses OS-level scripts will have to have separate portions written for each OS to make it cross-platform.
