Once you have created the folder you have to execute a change directory command (CD) at the server.

It's been awhile since I did it the old fashioned way but I think it's simply CD [newfolder] at the FTP> prompt.

Should be similar commands in the VB code.

After you create the folder you've got to change directory to it.
Might be wise to just run the FTP client from the command line on your winows box and go through the steps manually to prove the concept before you get elbow deep in the code.
