Answer 1

Type the following in a text file and save it as FILENAME.BAT.

1. MOVE *.* target folder (ex: move *.* folder1)

IF U WANT TO MOVE FILES IN ANY OTHER DRIVE JUST MENTION THE FULL ADDRESS IN THE TARGET FOLDER AREA. (EX: MOVE *.* F:\FOLDER1

EXECUTE THE FILE WHERE EVER YOU WANT.

YOU'VE TO COPY THE FILE. IF U WANT EXECUTE IN ANY OTHER FOLDER.

Answer 2

He said move not copy :X

I had to do this because TASM put the .obj file in the bin folder, which would make a real mess if I put a whole bunch of .obj files there.

Heres an example

Make a textfile called move.bat, in that text file put

MOVE C:\MyRandomFile.txt C:\SomeRandomFolder\

pause

This will move MyRandomFile.txt to C:\SomeRandomFolder. Thus it will now be located via C:\SomeRandomFolder\MyRandomFile.txt

I suggest adding the pause so you can see if it worked or not.
