with a list of name files

Hi,

I have a .txt with a list of name files:
111.jpg
222.jpg
333.jpg
etc. ...

I need a script that check if each of these files exist in a given folder, eg move file  source c : \ -to- destination  \\server\files files \. Is this possible?

Thanks,
srinivas

Re: with a list of name files

It's not clear from your description if you want to move files that "do" or "don't" exist at target.  I've assumed "don't" (just remove the "NOT" if that's the wrong assumption).

@echo off
for /f "usebackq tokens=*" %%a in ("list.txt") do if NOT exist "\\server\files files\%%~nxa" move /y "%%~fa" "\\server\files files\%%~nxa"

You can just use the command

'If not exist <filename>.<file extension> <command>'

Or

'If exist <filename>.<file extension> <command>'
