No problem...Have a look at this version and see if that works for you:

-

$dir = "C:\Program Files\NewDir1"
if NOT FileExists($dir) then 
   DirCreate($dir)
   MsgBox(0, "Directory Created", "Directory: " &$dir& " created.")
EndIf
$goto = MsgBox(4, "Directory Created", "Go there now?")
If $goto = 6 Then ; Yes clicked
   Run("Explorer " & $dir)
EndIf

ok now im trying to make it so the person who runs it can specefy a directory. but i cant get it to quit if they click the cancel button. this is what i have so far

$dir = InputBox("Enter Directory Name", "Please enter a directory. If it does not exist it will be created", "C:\")
If $dir = @error 1 Then
   Exit
EndIf
If FileExists($dir) Then
   MsgBox(0, "Directory Existed", "Directory: " &$dir& " was found.")
EndIf
If NOT FileExists($dir) then 
   DirCreate($dir)
   MsgBox(0, "Directory Created", "Directory: " &$dir& " created.")
EndIf
$goto = MsgBox(4, "Go there?", "Would you like to go there now?")
If $goto = 6 Then
   Run("Explorer " & $dir)
EndIf
