Recursively dump all sub-dirs contents?

Hi,

I have a dir structure that has many many subdirs, I would like to dump all the files from al the sub-dirs into a single directory? Can someone tell me the mv command that would do this please?

before example:
datadir/
datadir/datajan/jan.dat
datadir/datafeb/feb.dat

after example:
datadir/
datadir/datajan.dat
datadir/datafeb.dat

and so on.....

thanks in advance for any help.
regards
