Need asp script to create new directory sharepoint ( \\companyweb)

Hi,
I need help on a asp script (not .net) to create automaticly a new directory in my \\companyweb\projects site.
like:
\\companyweb\projects\client1
\\companyweb\projects\client2
\\companyweb\projects\client3
etc.
everytime the the script is executed

I'm running SBS 2003 and the script has to be executed from outside sharepoint , meaning I have a page " c:\Inetpub\wwwroot\mysite\myasppage.asp that execute the script.
can anybody help me Please.

thanks,

Sharepoint doesn't actually have physical folders. They are logical folders generated on the fly from data in the content database.

The only way to manage folders is using the Sharepoint API. That is non-trivial and requires that the computer running any programs written to use the API can only be run on computers with Sharepoint installed. Sharepoint 2003 and ASP do not play well together. It can be done but it's tricky.

Hi tedbilly.
thanks for responding to my question.

OK I understand that,

I could resolve my problem on an other way by existing the sharepoint database direct
but would it be possible ( and save ) to access the sharepoint database direct by SQL and if yes how?

thanks in advance
