Bulk Find/Copy/Rename Files
by igator210 - 3/15/12 5:57 AM
Trying to find a utility that can scan a set of folders and subfolders for a certain file. If it finds this file it makes a copy in two places but also renames the file to the same name as the folder.
My folder / subfolder structure is:
1) Data Folder (master folder)
A) Daily Folder (unique, created daily)
i) Info Folder (unique, created daily)
a) Detail File (generic, created daily)
ii) Info Folder
a) Detail File
iii) Info Folder
a) Detail File
iv) etc
a) etc
I don't have any control over the naming of Info File (it is the data structure of the program). So, over the years, I have hundreds of generic Info Files
I would like a program the would scan all the folders / subfolders looking for these Detail File, making a copy and renaming the copy the same name as the Info Folder. In a perfect world, I'd also like a second copy of the renamed file placed in different master folder.
This is all for archiving and auditing purposes.
