IVO and Judago - Script for Marie

Comment:

this is a followup from my previous post.. however, the conditions for the script has changed.. how do i do this in a script file? i have files in a folder with the file names similar to below: fluffy.b1 fluffy.b14 fluffy.b25 i want to write a script that will search my folder for these files, and auto delete the OLDER .b files and just leave the LATEST b file that is out there (based on file timestamp).. thanks Marie http://www.computing.net/answers/pr... hopeless but trying

Hello Marie, this time it's just straightforward... @echo off pushd \MyFolder for /F "skip=1" %%a in ('dir fluffy.b* /B /O-D') do del %%a popd :: [End_Of_Batch] Another kiss, please... and don't miss Judago.
