Thanks but I already have a script like this. Its not exactly what i am looking for.
There are alot of those different directories, more than 150 and it keeps growing. Manually adding DIR and MATCHSTR is not what i need. Automating such work should be the best solution, and thats what i am looking for. Unfortunately i am no programmer so i can't make a script like this.
Script should look at the file name then look at directory and if it found matches for string that contains 8-10 characters in a raw put that file in the respective directry and repeat for another file, if directory not found search for another one until found.
