hi guys

I'm not even sure whether this is possible, but...

I have a list of filenames (abcd.pdf, 1234.pdf etc) that i want to search in a directory, which has sub directories to find each of the filenames and copy them to a new folder.

Can you help?!?

Maybe this batch may help you:

Code: Select all

for /F "tokens=* delims=" %%a in ('dir abcd.pdf 1234.pdf /A-D /B /S 2^>nul') do echo copy "%%~a" newTargetFolder

Remove the echo, if this is what you wanted to do.
