I'm not very friendly with commands. My question is how I can grab files from subfolders?
e.g.
- D:\folder\folder1\
D:\folder\folder2\
Thank you!

Re: batch file
Can you explain how you want to grab the files? Is there something that you want to do with them?
I'm not sure what you mean in the sentence above.
I have fileslist names wich can be used to find pertecular files.

Re: batch file
Are you looking for the copy command?
Re: batch file
Thanks for the reply and sorry for not being specific.
I have a folder named "AB". In this folder there are subfolders and these subfolders includes southends of files. Time by time files included in these folders are updating. So before replacing old with the new one I have to compere to each other manually. But I have file names in notepad and I know which files are going to update.
So lets say: If I know that the file named UNIVERSE is updated I want to copy the same file from above mentioned "AB" folder and put it to other folder.
Hope I've explain it normaly.

Re: batch file
To give you a script, we need full details of the task.
To give you tips on a batch technique, then you have to ask about a specific aspect of a problem.
You have a tree of files.
You want to update some files.
What process needs to be performed to find out if the file needs to be updated?
AB folder has subfolders with a huge number of files.
What information do you have that shows where the source file is and where the target file is?
