Why are the loops nested??
The find loop obscures the outer loop by moving files away.
Also the find loop finds the already moved files.
Untested propopsal:
Code:
for file in ?????????*
do
if [ -f "$file" ]
 then
  dir=$(echo "$dir" | cut -c1-8)
  mkdir -p "$dir"
  mv "$file" "$dir"
 fi
done

I think the issue with this loop as you claimed but below line must be changed from $dir to $file , I will test it soon :

Code:
dir=$(echo "$file" | cut -c1-8)

The same issue I can not run it , I'd like to draw your attention if I test every block individually it works but as I mentioned I want to combine 2 blocks in one script ( block 1 is to get the files and block 2 is to organized the files into directories ) ...

Repost in this thread the script as you have it, with any corrections you have done. That way we can see the current situation. Smilie

See post #5. And: your post #13 is unreadable.
