Try this:
1. Copy and paste the lines below into c:\Windows\happy.bat.
2. Adjust Line #05 to suit your environment.
3. Remove all line numbers.
4. Run the batch file.
5. If you're happy with the result you see on the screen, remove
the word "echo" from Lines #12 and #13.

I do not understand what you're trying to achieve with your second
question. Please elaborate.

01. @echo off
02. set limit=1000
03. set count=0
04. set DirName=1
05. set source=d:\Thu
06.
07. setlocal enabledelayedexpansion
08. dir /b "%source%\*.txt" > c:\dir.txt
09.
10. echo Moving files from "%Source%" to "%Source%\%DirName%"
11. for /F "tokens=*" %%* in (c:\dir.txt) do (
12. if not exist "%Source%\!DirName!" echo md "%Source%\!DirName!"
13. echo move "%Source%\%%*" "%Source%\!DirName!"
14. set /a count=!count! + 1
15. if !count! GEQ %limit% (
16. set count=0
17. set /a DirName=!DirName! + 1
18. echo Moving files from "%Source%" to "%Source%\!DirName!"
19. )
20. )
21. del c:\dir.txt

Well - I know where you're coming from, but my biggest problem is that
the problems are pretty loosely defined - maybe an English as a second
(or third) language issue.

The second one is pretty easy to write, but hard to imagine for a less
than intermediate batch writer, so I took a crack (using NT/2K/XP/
Vista(?) approach) ...

@echo off
set fldr1="D:\Folder 1"
set fldr2="X:\Folder 2"
for %%A in (%fldr1%\*.*) do (
if not exist %fldr2%\%%~nxA (
echo %%~nxA in %fldr1% and NOT in %fldr2%)
)
)
for %%A in (%fldr2%\*.*) do (
if not exist %fldr1%\%%~nxA (
echo %%~nxA in %fldr2% and NOT in %fldr1%)
)
)

This can be done in no NT variant OSs, need to forgo the use of the
parentheses and CD into the folder under test before each of the FOR
statements. If the folders are on different drive it requires another
trick or two. But I leave that to a follow up (if there is one).

I didn't touch the first one without OPs input (code and or more
explanation of what is trying to be accomplished.)

I figure the OP wants a series of folders inside the current folder named
1,2,3,4...n that each contain 1000 files. The files are to be moved from
the current folder.

Sounds about right but ISTM is a easily handled(manually) one time
operation.

*** Hmm, can't this be done in one line? I am thinking of something such
as:

FOR %%F IN (*.*) DO FC %%F path\%F

Only OP knows for sure what was meant by "compare names of files".

BTW, you have a % missing from the last %F. :O

*** True. I took it to mean the differences of the contents of
like-named files.

*** Oh, so I did. Thanks for picking me up on that.

I tried that a sample version but not working with me :

@echo off
set limit=2
set count=0
set DirName=1
set source=F:\etisalat\batches\data
set new=F:\etisalat\batches\new

setlocal enabledelayedexpansion
dir /b "%source%\*.txt" > %new%\dir.txt

echo Moving files from "%Source%" to "%Source%\%DirName%"
for /F "tokens=*" %%* in (%new%\dir.txt) do (
if not exist "%Source%\!DirName!" echo md "%Source%\!DirName!"
echo move "%Source%\%%*" "%Source%\!DirName!"
set /a count=!count! + 1
if !count! GEQ %limit% (
set count=0
set /a DirName=!DirName! + 1
)
)
echo Moving files from "%Source%" to "%Source%\!DirName!"
::del c:\dir.txt
