I just need my server to read my folders as subdomains Example: I have http://mydomain.com/file I would like my server to display this url as http://file.mydomain.com. I have cpanel and I know how to create subdomains in cpanel but I need to have it done instantly and for multiple folders. I have wildcarded my dns but I know there is something else I have to do with the server. If anyone can explain it to me I would appreciate it.

I'm not really the expert, but I believe that you can do this very simply (on an Apache server anyway) using .htaccess and the "mod_rewrite" module. Create a blank .htaccess file, then put something like:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^http://[.+].YOURDOMAIN.com http://www.YOURDOMAIN.com/$1
My syntax is probably not correct, but that's that basic idea, do a bit of research into mod_rewrite, it is a very useful tool for SEO!
