augustspies Posted March 16, 2011 Share Posted March 16, 2011 hi everyone, I have a folder w/ say 10 .jpg or .txt files. I would like to take 1 file at a time and create a new folder starting with # 1,2,3,etc to move it into. currently i am able to move ALL files in a folder into another directory using filemove. but i would just like to move 1 and then create incremental folder names here is an example of what i'm trying to do: source\ randomname.jpg to \1\randomname.jpg source\ randomname.jpg to \2\randomname.jpg etc i tried piecing this together but not sure how to get it finished and working. Any help would be greatly appreciated! $sourceFolder = @ScriptDir & "\source" $destination = @ScriptDir & "\destination" ;UNSURE WHAT TO PUT HERE TO GET THE INCREMENTAL FOLDER NAME $folderlist = _FileListToArray($sourceFolder) $numberoffiles = $folderlist[0] MsgBox(0,"","There are " & $numberoffiles & " to be moved.") If $numberoffiles = 0 Then MsgBox (0,"","No Files Found.") Exit EndIf For $i = 1 to $numberoffiles Step 1 $oldfolder = $sourceFolder & "\" & $folderlist[$i] $newfolder = $destination & "\" & ;UNSURE WHAT TO PUT HERE TO GET THE INCREMENTAL FOLDER NAME & "\.jpg" FileMove($oldfolder, $newfolder) Next MsgBox (0,"","Moved a total of " & $numberoffiles) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
