|    batch move folders using wildcards?    |
|    19 Dec 14 19:46:43    |
      From: noway@nomail.com              I can batch move files using wildcards. Like this:       move aa*.* c:\files\a\aa       but how can I move folders using wildcards?       move aa* c:\folders\a\aa       doesn't do the trick. Seems a basic thing to me, but I can't find a       solution. Now I can't program; I can only adapt batch- and vbs-script.              What I do now is copy folders called a to z and aa to zz (191 total) into       the directory and manually move the folders aardvark to zebra into their       folder aa to ze and all folders aa to az in the topfolder a, and so on...              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
