Start with some pseudo code like this.

'Set a variable for the directory to be searched.
'Create the File System Object (objFSO)
'Bind to the folder using objFSO.GetFolder
'Enumerate files using .Files property of the folder
'Use the .Type property in an If statement to check if an exe and move the file

I hope that helps.

Mark
