Is there a way to combnie files from different folders to ..

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.general (More info?)

Use a tool called xxcopy, the free version will do it.
http://www.xxcopy.com/index.htm

Use the /SG switch

eg: xxcopy c:\dir1 c:\dir2 /SG

This will copy every file from c:\dir1 and all its subdirectories into the
directory c:\dir2

What are the file names? If there is any commonality do a search for
them using wild card characters, then drag all of them at once to the
folder you want.
