      From: erik.tank@gmail.com              Thanks for the response Michael... I just figured out my problem - I was using       /R instead of /L for findstr... after changing that - presto - it all started       working. Your code looks way more simple than my own. I wonder why I make       things more complex        than they need to be sometimes, but at least it was challenging and rewarding       now that it's completed and working. Here's my code for anyone else looking       to do the same type of thing:              dir C:\dfs_shares\home\staff\%1/s/b | findstr /V /I /L "C:\dfs_s       ares\home\staff\%1\files C:\dfs_shares\home\staff\%1\cache C:\df       _shares\home\staff\%1\files-trashbin" >"C:\dfs_shares\home\staff\%1\@movelist"       for /f "tokens=*" %%a in (C:\dfs_shares\home\staff\%1\@movelist) do echo       "%%a">>"C:\dfs_shares\home\staff\%1\@movelist2"       mkdir C:\dfs_shares\home\staff\%1\files       for /f "tokens=*" %%f in (C:\dfs_shares\home\staff\%1\@movelist2) do move %%f       c:\dfs_shares\home\staff\%1\files\       move C:\dfs_shares\home\staff\%1\files\@movelist C:\dfs_shares\h       me\staff\%1\@movelist       move C:\dfs_shares\home\staff\%1\files\@movelist2 C:\dfs_shares\       ome\staff\%1\@movelist2              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
