Windows Batch to Copy Files in an Excluded Set
Dear Experts,
I would like to write a batch script (CMD) to copy files from c:\temp of one Windows machine to a shared folder let's say pshared in another machine. However, the script should copy files with names not starting with B,DE and F. How can I achieve this?
Best Regards

robocopy should do the trick (part of the OS since Vista/W2k8):
robocopy.exe "C:\Temp" "\\SomeServer\SomeShare" *.* /xf b* d* e* f* /r:0
Not without additional scripting; and robocopy is far better anyway. In Vista, the xcopy help even provided a warning that it's deprecated and robocopy should be used instead.
not sure that pure batch can handle this other than copy all, then delete B*,D*,E*,F*.
this works but is not very efficient
is vbscript ok ??

set typ=*.frm
set src=c:\ee
set dest=c:\ee\done
xcopy /C %Src%\%typ% %dest%
del /q %dest%\B*.*
del /q %dest%\E*.*
del /q %dest%\F*.*
del /q %dest%\G*.*
