Thanks Todd, and I am sorry for the bad example first time posting here.   
      
   Todd that is 100% what I wanted, but alas Axel is correct in that I do not ant   
   the file extension to be part of the folder name if that is at all possible   
   i.e I have folder with 100 files eg.   
      
   1.txt 2.txt 3.txt etc. and I would like to be able to run the batch and it   
   creates a folder named 1 and moves the file 1.txt in to it if hat is possible.   
      
   thanks again for your help it is much appreciated.
