class ApplicationTests  
    {  
        static void Main(string[] args)  
        {  
           // The variable pkg points to the location  
            // of the ExecuteProcess package sample   
            // that is installed with the SSIS samples.  
            string pkg = @"C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\100\Samples\Integration Services\Package Samples\ExecuteProcess Sample\ExecuteProcess\UsingExecuteProcess.dtsx";  

            Application app = new Application();  

            //Create a folder, myNewFolder, in the   
            // SQL Server msdb database.  
            app.CreateFolderOnSqlServer("\\", "myNewFolder", "yourserver", null, null);  
        }  
    }  
Class ApplicationTests  
        Sub Main(ByVal args() As String)  
           ' The variable pkg points to the location  
            ' of the ExecuteProcess package sample   
            ' that is installed with the SSIS samples.  
            Dim pkg As String =  "C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\100\Samples\Integration Services\Package Samples\ExecuteProcess Sample\ExecuteProcess\UsingExecuteProcess.dtsx"   

            Dim app As Application =  New Application()   

            'Create a folder, myNewFolder, in the   
            ' SQL Server msdb database.  
            app.CreateFolderOnSqlServer("\\", "myNewFolder", "yourserver", Nothing, Nothing)  
        End Sub  
End Class  

Remarks

To verify that the folder was created, use the following Transact-SQL query, which selects all packages stored in the File System folder.

select * from sysssispackagefolders

Or, connect to the Integration Services server, expand Stored Packages, and then expand MSDB. The new folder that has the name given in strNewFolderName will be listed.
