Moving files not directory.
Hi,

I want to move only files not subdirectories.
I issued the below command, but subdirectories are also gets moved.

mv /ucrrpd/input/upload/ /ucsspd/common/history/

In the above case, all subdirectories in /ucrrpd/input/upload/ also gets moved to /ucsspd/common/history/

I want to move only files in /ucrrpd/input/upload/

Example :

/ucrrpd/input/upload/RRR123.dat
/ucrrpd/input/upload/RRR124.dat
/ucrrpd/input/upload/RRR125.dat

Only RRR files has to be moved not sub directories.

Can anyone help on this. This has to be done in a single line script using mv ?
