Hi,

I can’t figure out a way to have all of the .conf files in my folder used in a batch file.

On a daily basis, I need the batch file to find all of the .conf in a particular folder and run a perl script on them…I can set up the scheduled task however I’ve had to type in all of the .conf file names manually.

Does anyone know how to get a script to select all the files of a particular extention?

I would be very grateful!!
