Batch script not function as expected.

Hi;

I have a batch script running on a W2K3 server, (see in code section), this batch file would check if any file exist in K:\PO\archive folder, if it is; it will copy the file to k:\po folder, if not exist, it will display a message.

Howerver; I cannot get "IF NOT EXIST k:\po\archive\*.* GOTO NOFILE" command line working.  It always go to BEGIN section eventhough there is no file in k:\po\archive folder.

Any idea?

@echo off
rem This is a batch program to copy the raw data file from Archive folder back to PO folder
 
:CHK
cls
set folder1=k:\po\archive
set folder2=k:\po
 
IF NOT EXIST k:\po\archive\*.* GOTO NOFILE
 
:BEGIN
dir %folder1%\*.#???????
 
echo.
set /p yn=Confirm to restore this file to K:\PO folder ? y/n 
 
if "%yn%"=="" (echo Not entry) & (GOTO CHK) 
if /I "%yn%"=="n" (GOTO QUIT)
if /I "%yn%"=="y" (GOTO FRESTORE) else (echo Entry not y or n!) & (GOTO CHK)
 
:FRESTORE
ECHO START MOVING...
robocopy %folder1% %folder2% *.*  /mov /maxage:0 /s
 
cls
 
dir k:\po\*.#???????
echo.
echo ************************************************************************
