I have been writing simple Bat files to make tasks easier for my self but I just cant get this one to work. I have a folders like this (just an example) - \southpark\series1\episode1\ep1.avi \southpark\series1\episode2\ep2.avi etc etc What I want is a bat file that I can put in folder \series1\ and it will move all the avi files to another folder eg C:\southpark So far I have got this to work - Move episode1\.avi C:\southpark but When I goto change episode1 to to make it look like - Move \.avi C:\southpark to try and move all the .avi files at once from all the episode folders it wont work. anyone got any ideas?? Manually doing it is not an option as it will take ages thanks George W Bush - '...more and more of our imports are coming from overseas.'

If it needs to be in .bat then go to a command prompt and type "for /?" you can do lists of files and directories using that. You could also use the windows explorer, search *.avi and drag them all to the right folder in one go.
