Oh, and since this is a shell scripting list :), here's how to do it with "do shell script":
property subf_names: { "Design/Stage 1", "Based On", "Artwork" }
--
display dialog "Enter job name:" default answer "job name"
set j_name to text returned of result
repeat
display dialog "Enter job number:" default answer "0"
set j_number to text returned of result
try
if (j_number as integer) < 100000 and ¬
(j_number as integer) > -1 then exit repeat
on error
display dialog "Error: enter an integer less than 100,000."
end try
end repeat
set job_number to text -6 thru -1 of ("00000" & j_number & "_")
set temp_name to job_number & j_name
tell application "Finder"
set main_folder to (make new folder at desktop with properties {name:temp_name}) as alias
end tell
repeat with child in subf_names
do shell script "cd " & quoted form of posix path of main_folder & "; mkdir -p " & quoted form of child
end repeat
