On a daily basis I have 9 folders, that I need to pull 15-20 files for each folder. Example: Folder name = 00146 File 1 from date 1/20/2017 File 2 from date 2/...

Re: Need help writing a batch file for copying files
Hmmm alright. I can't say I fully understand what your saying but, the original script you have written works perfect. I was trying to edit the code a little to have it pause once all the files are gone. Do I edit this line? I have tried different variations of the Pause command, but can't seem to g...

Perfect! Thank you. Is this possible to do with copy instead of move? I changed the move to copy and after the destination file disappears it selects the same file it did before.

Re: Need help writing a batch file for copying files
Thank you foxidrive!
Your code worked perfectly.
In addition, is there anyway to display the file name that has been transferred?
Again, thank you!
Much appreciated.
