I checked at wuarchive.wustl.edu, but couldn't find a shareware or pd program that does a "prune & graft" -- that is, enable me to 'pick up' any directory tree on my hard disk and 'put it down' somewhere else in the directory tree. Does anyone know of such a beast? Many thanks in advance.

Many thanks in advance. Well, you could always use XCOPY to just copy the subtree. It's not elegant, I know, and it takes a lot of space and time, but it works. - Phil @ Buckskin Technologies

PRUNE does exactly what you described, neither more nor less. J.T.H.

Check out PC/Tools version 6.0. Besides prune and graft, you get lots of other useful utilities for the bucks. (Backup program, DOS shell, UNDELETE/UNFORMAT, etc. etc.) Each of the individual utilities is always rated near the top of the heap when compared to software written just to perform the same function. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Mark R.

Many thanks in advance. I am not sure of any Shareware Utilities that will do what you ask but XTREE PRO or Magellan will move whole directory tree structures. -Jack-

Many thanks in advance. There is a file handler called QDOS III from Gazelle Systems that will do exactly what you asked for and more. I am currently beta-testing it. It may not be out until April. Contact me by email for details and avail- ability. Dom
