Hi!

I'm using VisualCron 4.9.26. I have to create a function that searches folder for files containing a particular string and move only those files in another folder. Both are network folders.

The problem is, I'm not able to use a wildcard (*) in file name for conditions of type "File - content - contains". VisualCron says that there are illegal chars in file path.

I would like to avoid the use of scripts.

Any idea?

Hi DanieleSalatti,

Without scripting... hmm... 🤔
What you could try is the following:

Use a command execute task to run the cmd.exe from the windows folder.
As arguments use the '/c' for running a dos command and than the move command.



So it looks like this:



So no scripting over here.
Hoped it helped you. [-o<

In version 5 we will provide filters for file content as well.

bommer, I thought I had the best solution for this.... 🤐

With filters, you win!

Thanks, it is a good temporary solution. Version 5 is a lot of work and it may take some time to finish it.
