Hi Sean,

PK>  for %%f in (*.mo? *.tu? *.we? *.th? *.fr? *.sa? *.su?) copy %%f 
PK> d:\backup

 SD> Unfortunately, that didn't work.  

Ooops, try adding the word DO before "copy".........;-)

EG:

[E:\Z]for %f in (sq?.msg) do copy %f \y

[E:\Z]copy sq1.msg \y
        1 file(s) copied.

[E:\Z]copy sq2.msg \y
        1 file(s) copied.

[E:\Z]copy sq3.msg \y
        1 file(s) copied.


Cheers...........pk.
