DOS Batch - Search and copy script

Hi,

I am no hero in scripting, so I'm asking for your help.

I'm looking for a script that searches the whole hard disk and automatically copies all *.jpg files to another drive (e.g. usb stick).

Can someone help me with this?

greetings,

I wouldn't necessarily do this in DOS batch, but it can be done pretty easily.

Code:

cd c:\
copy /s *.jpg H:\      <---drive letter here

The /s switch is used to make a recursive copy. Note that this will bug out if any copy error is encountered.
