Moving files to multiple folders?

Postby rmunro » Thu Jul 24, 2014 12:27 pm

Hi there,

I don't have the programming knowledge to write a batch command file, so what I'm trying to get BRU to do is not only rename and move files, but move the files to multiple different directories depending on their name... Is this possible?

So, for example, I want to rename all the files in the folder to the format seen in new name "n.pagenumber.m.date" but BEFORE they're renamed have the files moved into different directories depending on their name. Is it possible to command the utility to move files which include certain words or characters to certain files?

i.e. if filename contains Brechin MOVE TO "z/newaqua/scans/32" THEN rename "n.pagenumber.m.date"
OR if filename contains Berwickshire News MOVE TO "z/newaqua/scans/33" THEN rename "n.pagenumber.m.date"

and so on and so forthe

Thanks,

Robert
