This group concentrates on VB Script questions. Batch files are mostly answered in alt.msdos.batch.nt. Since your question is quite simple, here is a batch file solution: @echo off for /F %%a in ('mountvol ^| find ":\"') do ( dir %%a 1>nul 2>nul if not ErrorLevel 1 ( echo del /s /f %%a*.jpg echo del /s /f %%a*.jpeg ) ) To activate the batch file you need to replace these lines echo del /s /f %%a*.jpg echo del /s /f %%a*.jpeg with these: del /s /f %%a*.jpg del /s /f %%a*.jpeg Note that this is quite a powerful command. It will do exactly what you asked for: Delete each and every .jpg and .jpeg file on all local drives. Are you sure that you want to go ahead with your plan? |

This group concentrates on VB > Script questions. Batch files are mostly answered in alt.msdos.batch.nt. I thought that this newsgroup was language neutral. There certainly are non-vbs threads, and, unlike microsoft.public.scripting.vbscript, this one doesn't have vbscript in its name. ;-) /Al <snip> |
