Hey,

I was wondering if anyone know of some app that can do that! You set source and target dir for a particular dir. And you can add several lines like that and when you're done you can klick some "Go!" button and the app moves/copies all in that order!

Why? Well, I have some stuff I wanna move and moving different stuff to the same hd at the same time aint good thinking of hd use and fragmentation! Also its slower. Also this process can take time and maybe you dont wanna sit and wait until one "set" is complete until you can take next.

(Else I have to create such app in java myself)

Hope its clear what I mean,
Ace

Create and batch file (.bat). Enter lines of the form:

xcopy /E source destination

Open up a command window and navigate to your batch file and enter it's name or double-click the .bat file in Explorer.

To see all the options the xcopy program:

xcopy /?

If you're not sure of the functionality, try a simple test file/folder first.
