I know I should be able to do it. I can do it in Linux :) I was trying variations of piping the dir command to copy using the pipe operator, but nothing was working. That's how I'd attack it. Maybe it might work better if you were able to step through the output of the dir command in a batch file using a While loop. Anyway, I have to get back to work, but I'll try to look at this again later.
