Hi, Randy:
     You might want to take a look at Stardock System's OS/2 
Essentials "DirMaster".
     Altho you didn't say that you want to move the files 
AUTOMATICALLY the possibility exist, in which case DirMaster 
may not be the proper tool.
     I use DirMaster when I have a big job to do. For example 
cleaning up TEMP and TMP files or moving s/w from one virtual 
machine to another.
