hi what I am expecting is to list all the files in an specific an specific folder and patter like this
Code:
/MYPATH/EPMS_VO*.csv

/MYPATH/ will be fixed but the ini file could have more than one pattern in this EPMS_VO (there is a typo on the original post).

The problem is when I concatenate fixed dir FILEDIR with LINE it
Code:
"TEST=$FILEDIR$LINE/*.csv"

intead of get this :
Code:
/MYPATH/EPMS_VO*.csv

I am getting this and failig:
Code:
*.csvPATH/EMPS_VO

So the condition FILESEXIST is always failing
