Creating directories in QlikView Script

Is it possible to create directories in QlikView script?

I would like to store daily QVD dumps of data in a subfolder based on the year month and say, e.g.

2011\7\22\MyQvd.qvd

But I need to generate these folders on a daily basis.

Of course, this syntaxe does not work exactly as it should be. If the drive is local, no problem. If the location is a network folder, it does not work anymore.

If i execute this command outside qlikview, it works. So an idea should be getting the path of the qvw, and build an instruction like :

EXECUTE cmd.exe /C mkdir variable\QVD;

with variable = Y:\folder\sub_folder\...\

De toute façon, ça sort du périmètre QlikView, ce sont des instructions windows.
