It works perfectly...Thanks a lot for your help....
Would like to know if there is a way to see if the check if the directories ARCHIVE/archive/Archive exists and based on that move the files to the Archive directory...since I want to write a generic script that archives the files to archive directory...but for some projects the archive directory is ARCHIVE, for some it is Archive and for others it is Archive.

Once agian thanks for all the help
