Is this a Rev bug, or what am I missing?

How do I check that though? Where are errors in the "create folder"
statement reported?
Would "the result" provide that? The documentation does not seem clear
on this.
I suppose I could always check again (if there is a folder what then)
after the "create folder" statement, but if there is a result code, I
would prefer to use that.
I will try this, I suppose, and see what I am getting back as a result.
