Jan,
Thank you for the suggestion. My situation is that the folders are not on the same level.
In the particular code I am writing, the user chooses a folder, inputs a folder name, the script creates a folder with that name in the selected folder and assigns a specific label to both.
Since I have variables to both paths, I'd like to use those variables in a smart way to "batch assign" them a new label. And because I only have 2 folders, I'm not really looking for a loop but rather to a way to apply a property on an arbitrary list of items.
