Hello,
I am new to the forum and I have been reading a lot of comments but I cannot find one to help with my on going problem.
I have a batch file which looks for a string in different text files and then returns the file location. I was just wondering if it was possible to get a batch file to look up a list of file locations within a text file and move them into a certain folder?

I pasted below the filenames that appear in the text file and I basically need a batch file to look up these filenames and then move them to a certain folder.

Hello,
Thank you very much for that, I was just wondering if possible you might be able to explain the different bits below? just so I can maybe try and get a better understanding?

@echo off &SetLocal EnableExtensions EnableDelayedExpansion

set "$NewLocation.FullPath=C:\Windows\Temp"

for /f "usebackq tokens=*" %%! in (

"Sample.TXT"

) do if exist "%%~!" (
::
for %%r in ( "%%~!" ) do set "$File=%%~nxr"
::
copy /y "%%~!" "!$NewLocation.FullPath!\!$File!"
)

EndLocal
