I have an x-vision program that is a closed circuit tv recorder that records
images to my F drive, every day i back up one of the cameras to my G drive by
the built in backup prog at 10.00 hrs. I need to delete from my F drive the
files starting from greater than 00005.idx to the last file on the G drive
(approx 1870 files), these files have alternating extensions of IDX and MMV.
Can I do this with a script file automatically at 11.00 hrs if so how. any
help would be much appreciated. jim.

Yes, it can be done, but I doubt you'll get anyone to write such a script
for you but then maybe somoene willhave one sitting around that you could
modify to use.
 
Probably quicker to "copy" the files to save to a new directory, Delete
the folder with the 1870 files, and then rename the folder with the
saved files.
