BAT file - move command

Hi,
I would like to move files (if any) from one folder to another. I'm using the below command --
move /Y "C:\test\input\*.*" "C:\test\output\"
This one works fine if there are any files present. If there are no files present then I get the below error --
"The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect."
Is there a way to execute this command only if there are any files in the folder? I tried using "IF" command but it doesn't help.
