Need to move 450,000+ files
Ooooo - that sounds like it might be my best solution to date, Captain - thanks! I was looking into Robocopy but hadn't gotten too deep with it - I will try your recommendation and report back, Sir! :) FYI - I'm not copying everything into the archive. There are hundreds of directories/sub...- ccoyle

Need to move a HUGE list of files
Thanks Guitarzan, but without the complete syntax I won't be able to use your example. It looks like you are on the right track but I don't know how to "write" script and I'm not able to plug someone else's example of MoveFiles into this script if it has even slightly altered syntax (which... -
Need to move 450,000+ files

Need to move a HUGE list of files
I'm not strong in VBS but I still thought it was the right tool for the job. I'm actually less familiar with VBA / Excell scripting but I will definately post in that forum as you suggest, hopefully between the 2, someone will be able to help me develop the solution. Thanks! Cheers, -Chris -

How do I modify this existing script?
Hi All, Below is a script I've been working with for some time - works very well. I need to modify it and am not sure how. Currently this will give me last modified of all files in all subdirectories. Simply enter the directory, enter where I want the output .txt to go and enter how many days... -
Powershell script to find and list directories by modified date
Thanks Jason! I ended up working with another Tek-Tips expert, Geates, and resolved through a vb script. Not only will I give you a Star, I'll test your solution (when time allows) and report back. Thanks again! -Chris- ccoyle

Script to extract directory names by modified date
Thanks a bunch for working with me on this Geates (and teaching me along the way)! I gave you a star! -
Script to extract directory names by modified date
After further review .... We're not picking up the right info with the script above. It looks like the script is just listing all folders (and modified date) it doesn't seem to care about the criteria we've set .... Whaddya think is the issue? Thanks! -
Script to extract directory names by modified date
Ok, we're getting close - I can taste it! It looks like the script is getting the correct info but it just displays it in a Windows Script Host window – doesn’t write it to C:\log.csv and all I can do is close the window (can’t copy the text). log.csv is created but the data isn't written to... -
Powershell script to find and list directories by modified date
Hi! I have a ton of directories and subdirectories under a network share (H:). I need to identify any directory not modified since a certain date (10/1/2009) and list them in a file - .csv would be swell but obviously .txt would be fine too. I've been tryting to get this done via vbs but just...- ccoyle

Script to extract directory names by modified date
Thanks a MILLION Geates! I'll check it out in the morning and see where we're at. I really do read through the scripts and try to understand what's going on - some of it I understand, but alot of it is just beyond me - especially cause there seems to be endless ways to "skin the cat" in vbs... -
Script to extract directory names by modified date
Thanks Geates but where's the end of the script? Honestly, if I knew how to script I wouldn't need someone to do it for me. Even side by side (the 2 scripts together) I can't figure out how to end your script ... I do appreciate you're help (and your quick response on my last post!). -
Script to extract directory names by modified date
Thanks Geates! I'm trying to use the second option you gave me here but having issues. The second option thread329-1663859: Recursive Date Modifed Search & Log) is used to list all files accessed within the last 180 days. I need a script that tells me all the folders (and subfolders) NOT... -
