I think that IT will only hold the name of created controls inside of  
Rev!
"create folder XXX" is another beast ;-)

Try:
on mouseUp
   create folder "FUZZ"
   ## since you did not specify an absolute path
   ## the folder will be created in the current directory

   set the folder to (the folder & "/FUZZ")
   ## less characters to type ;-)

   ## the folder = the directory = the defaultfolder
end mouseUp
