why can't I create a folder with a variable?

[Tiemo Hollmann TB]

Hello,

when saying:

create folder "C:/Temp/foo" -- it works like expected

when saying: 

put  "C:/Temp/foo" into myFolder

create folder myFolder -- nothing happens

I even tried it with:

put  "C:/Temp/foo" into myFolder

create folder merge(quote & myFolder & quote) -- nothing happens

 

any idea, what I a missing is appreciated
