[dba-Tech] Command line: move

Hi Stuart,
I'm testing this out and have found that I need to modify it a bit from your
suggestion in order to have move all subdirectories I had to add  /E switch.
And the /D switch came up invalid. So I'm just guessing it was a typo and
you meant to type /E ;o)

Robocopy "D:\Toolbox" "U:\Toolbox" /MOVE /E /MINAGE:1

Thanks again!

If you are running Vista, Win7  or Win Server 2008, you could use Robocopy:

Robocopy  "C:\My Files" "E:\My Files_Backup" /MOVE /D /MINAGE:1

Enter "Robocopy /?" at a command prompt for a full list of options.
