Hello, all,

Is there a simple way to take a directory structure, scan it, and make a new directory structure based on filenames? Luckily, the files in the directory all have this structure:

something ; somethingelse.ext

I just want to create a new directory structure (with a different root directory) that stores files in directories based on what appears before the semi-colon.

Thank you, in advance.

Not sure if I completely understand your question, but robocopymight be helpful.

Ah, perhaps so, but I was just simply hoping for a native scripting solution that would take a directory tree with files such as:

A ; X.ext
B ; Y.ext
C ; Z.ext

and put them into a structure that looks like this:

C:\A\A ; X.ext
C:\B\B ; Y.ext
C:\C\C ; Z.ext

etc.
