Copy folders without file contents

Comment:

Message: I have a folder full of sub-folders that contain 2008 files. I want to creatE a new folder FOR 2009 with the same sub-folder names, but without the files that are contained in the 2008 folders. Is there a way to do this?

I think you can get robocopy to do that. "Best Practices", Event viewer, host file, perfmon, antivirus, anti-spyware, Live CD's, backups, are in my top 10

XCOPY can do that as well: /T Creates directory structure, but does not copy files. Does not include empty directories or subdirectories. /T /E includes ... xcopy /?
