File::Copy will handle the moves for you. So, what happens when you run your script?

I get problems when I try to copy the directory, doesn't seem to be able to handle it. I'll need the directory structure to stay intact from one folder to the other. Copy failed: Is a directory	[reply]

Perhaps look into File::Copy::Recursive? It handles directories as well as files, but I don't know that it will let you specify which files it copies. But the pathmk() method might be useful to you. Dum Spiro Spero	[reply]

Bingo, much better capabilities on that here. `rmove($move_file,$new_file) or die "Copy failed: $!";` [download] Thank you!	[reply] [d/l]
