 Re: batch input to organize Liviu wrote: - "docx" under DOCUMENTS, "pptx" under POWERPOINT, "xlsx" under EXCEL, and "html" under INTERNET are redundant except in the rare case of an NTFS volume with NtfsDisable8dot3NameCreation=1 (otherwise for example *.doc will match .docx files, too, due to the short 8.3 name).
That would explain the redirect stderr ( no matching files ), I wasn't aware of that  Sorry for ruining everything, I just hate to see poor design, especially if it's missing code tags.

Re: batch input to organize I am back!
To Squashman, yes I have the @echo off, In the last post I just listed from the code down.
To foxidrive, I will try your suggestion "move source target >nul" to see if it take off the list of the files that were moved.Also will look for any hidden files that might be causing "A duplicate file name exist, or the file cannot be found."
To Liviu, I think that Ed Dyreen is right with the files extension, see jpeg is an image that you down from the web, the difference between doc and docx is that one is 2003 and the other is 2007, the same with excel and powerpoint.
Thanks Ed Dyreen, I am not familiar with that code, is it "C"?, and it is suppose to do the same than my bath file?

Ed's code is batch. He just has a unique way of expressing it.

Re: batch input to organize Thanks to clarify that Squashman.
To foxidrive, I tried your suggestion "move source target >nul", but I think the location where I put it doesn´t belong, because I get this message after I run the code "The syntax of the command is incorrect".
Was like this: "if not exist %drive%\ORGANIZED\DOCUMENTS md %drive%\ORGANIZED\DOCUMENTS
for %%x in (doc txt docx pdf rtf vsd wpd wri) do move 2>nul /-y %drive%\*.%%x %drive%\ORGANIZED\DOCUMENTS"
now is like this:
"if not exist %drive%\ORGANIZED\DOCUMENTS md %drive%\ORGANIZED\DOCUMENTS
for %%x in (doc txt docx pdf rtf vsd wpd wri) do move source target >nul /-y %drive%\*.%%x %drive%\ORGANIZED\DOCUMENTS"

Re: batch input to organize Post all your code again so we can see what you are using. Please use CODE tags around your code as well.

Re: batch input to organize Hello Ed Dyreen, today I tried your code, you almost got it, I use D: as I have in that root a all bunch of different documents to organize, so your program did create a folder call ORGANIZED, and all the subfolders, and it even showed me the commands for moving the different files, but when I went to check the sub-folder DOCUMENTS in the ORGANIZED folder, was empty. So, it didn´t move the files from the root D:
can tell me why?
but yes, that is what I want to do!
Thanks

Code: for %%x in (doc txt docx pdf rtf vsd wpd wri) do move >nul 2>nul /-y %drive%\*.%%x %drive%\ORGANIZED\DOCUMENTS"

Re: batch input to organize Hey, Hey Liviu, I change the code with what you said:
"for %%x in (doc txt docx pdf rtf vsd wpd wri) do move >nul 2>nul /-y %drive%\*.%%x %drive%\ORGANIZED\DOCUMENTS"
And it worked!
didn´t show ""The syntax of the command is incorrect", "A duplicate file name exist, or the file cannot be found.", or " the list of the files that were moved."
Just selected number 2 for D:, it created folder ORGANIZED, and all the other sub-folders, and moved all the different documents from the root of D: to the sub-folder documents.
Flawless!
Whoopy!
Now I have to complete all the other syntax, and that will be it.

Re: batch input to organize I have to really thank you all involved, I still want to see Ed Dyreen way of doing it, very neat!
And for my batch that anybody can have, I will try to dress it up with colors and maybe convert it to exe.
Big hug!

Re: batch input to organize I would like to spice it up, like a nice color windows, with buttons to push, you know?
with a batch you can´t do too much, or I am wrong?

Re: batch input to organize I also want to put at the end, an statement to change to the ORGANIZED folder when the batch finish.
I tried:
CD\ORGANIZED
CD %DRIVE%\ORGANIZED
What else is there?
