I am looking to write or find a simple program that could read a list of file names from say a .txt or .csv file and then move any files in that list from Directory "A" to Directory "B". Just a simple sorting program.
I did a tiny bit of programming in high school (15 years ago) but nothing since, so i'm totally unfamiliar with what would be the easiest language to do this in or if there is a shareware or freeware app that already can accomplish this. This would be on a windows 2000 system
Any assistance or point in the right direction would be appreciated. Thanks! :)

You could accomplish this in virtually any language...it could even easily be done in a batch file run from the command line, or even on a schedule. Is there a programming language that you are more familiar with than others?

Not anymore really, I did a little bit of basic, cobol and pascal in highschool but like I said it was 15 years ago, so i've forgotten it all pretty much. I installed a trial version of visual basic thinking I could easily find the commands I needed to accomplish what I wanted to so, but I 'm having trouble finding the specific things I need without having to learn everything else. Unfortunatly I don't have the time to teach myself that much. It's too bad though. I really did enjoy the programming I did back in highschool.
