Creating a global master file.

Hi everybody,

I hope you are well and can help.

I have a top folder. Let's call is "Master".
Underneath this folder, I have many subfolders, of unknown number, but all will contain 3 files, with similar naming convention.
So, the folder structure could look like this..

 Parent      Child
 Folder      Folder   3 files of similar naming convention

 Master
    |_______ ad
                      |_________1of3_workings_ad.txt
                      |_________2of3_sorted_ad.txt
                      |_________3of3_master_ad.txt
    |_______ batchfile
                      |_________1of3_workings_batchfile.txt
                      |_________2of3_sorted_batchfile.txt
                      |_________3of3_master_batchfile.txt
    |_______ sccm
                      |_________1of3_workings_sccm.txt
                      |_________2of3_sorted_sccm.txt
                      |_________3of3_master_sccm.txt
    |_______ vmware
                      |_________1of3_workings_vmware.txt
                      |_________2of3_sorted_vmware.txt
                      |_________3of3_master_vmware.txt


 As you can see, the naming conventions for the 3 files are:

 1of3_workings_*.txt
 2of3_sorted_*.txt
 3of3_master_*.txt

 where "*" is the same name as the folder name given for the child folder these files reside in.

 ===========================================================================

What I want to do is the following:

I want to create a script, that will create a text file that contains the contents of every 3of3_master_*.txt in the above folder structure.

So, for example, in the above scenario, this is how it would look....

script.cmd
1.Create a text file called 'GLOBAL-MASTER.txt'.
2.Read every subfolder of the top folder 'Master', looking for a file called '3of3_master_*.txt'
3.For each file 3of3_master_*.txt found, read its contents and copy into the 'GLOBAL-MASTER.txt' file created in step 1.
4.Leave a line or 2 blank space between each '3of3_master_*.txt' in the new GLOBAL-MASTER.txt file.

Here for example, are the contents of each file targetted...


------------------------------------------------- 3of3_master_ad.txt

-------------------------------------------
Master: ad
-------------------------------------------
 
item1,item2,item3;  


------------------------------------------------- 3of3_master_batchfile.txt

-------------------------------------------
Master: batchfile
-------------------------------------------
 
batch,token;  



------------------------------------------------- 3of3_master_sccm.txt

-------------------------------------------
Master: sccm
-------------------------------------------
 
deployment type;  


------------------------------------------------- 3of3_master_vmware.txt

-------------------------------------------
Master: vmware
-------------------------------------------
 
esx,vsphere;  



The output by running the script will be like below.



=====================================================================  GLOBAL-MASTER.txt

 
-------------------------------------------
Master: ad
-------------------------------------------
 
item1,item2,item3;  


 
-------------------------------------------
Master: batchfile
-------------------------------------------
 
batch,token;  


-------------------------------------------
Master: sccm
-------------------------------------------
 
deployment type;  


-------------------------------------------
Master: batchfile
-------------------------------------------
 
esx,vsphere;  




So, you can see, that the script will create a text file called 'GLOBAL-MASTER.txt, which will contain the contents of all 3of3_master_*.txt in the above folder structure.

Any help greatly appreciated.
