Create       a test folder with a few files. Create a sub folder with a few files.       Then test the command on that folder.              ** At Windows XP command prompt **              C:\>md test              C:\>cd test              C:\test>echo.>a.sfv              C:\test>echo.>a.nfo              C:\test>echo.>a.ini              C:\test>md test2              C:\test>copy *.* test2       a.ini       a.nfo       a.sfv        3 file(s) copied.              C:\test>dir /a-d/s/b       C:\test\a.ini       C:\test\a.nfo       C:\test\a.sfv       C:\test\test2\a.ini       C:\test\test2\a.nfo       C:\test\test2\a.sfv              C:\test>attrib +h a.ini              C:\test>attrib +h test2\a.ini              C:\test>del /a/s/f *.ini       Deleted file - C:\test\a.ini       Deleted file - C:\test\test2\a.ini              C:\test>dir /a-d/s/b       C:\test\a.nfo       C:\test\a.sfv       C:\test\test2\a.nfo       C:\test\test2\a.sfv                     --       Todd Vargo       (Post questions to group only.
