copy multiple files in different directories
I have a report file that is generated every day by a scheduled process.
Each day the file is written to a directory named .../blah_blah/Y07/MM-DD-YY/reportmmddyy.tab I want to copy all of this reports to a separate directory without having to do it one by one. However, if I try cp .../blah_blah/Y07/*/report*.tab /new_directory/report*.tab I get "cannot create /new_directory/report*.tab: no such file or directory" however, ls .../blah_blah/Y07/*/report*.tab displays all the files I want to copy. How do I do this? Thanks. |
