Moving files that are not as followed.

[stg68]

What is the best method of moving files from one directory to another by excluding files by name.

For instance, Move all files from directory A to directory B where file names are not FirstFile.txt, SecondFile.txt and ThirdFile.txt

Best Regards

Quick example, storing excluded files in array

#include <file.au3>
Global $dir1="C:\test", $dir2="C:\test2"
Global $excludes[3]=["FirstFile.txt","SecondFile.txt","ThirdFile.txt"]
$files=_FileListToArray($dir1,"*",1)
If UBound($files)>1 Then
For $file In $files
    For $exclude In $excludes
        If $file=$exclude Then
            ContinueLoop 2
        EndIf
    Next
    FileMove($dir1&"\"&$file,$dir2&"\"&$file,9)
Next
EndIf
