I need to search for a folder which has some XML files in it and move it to another location . If I give the destination location as d:/ABC/def I need that folder to be moved to d:/ABC .

Do you have to search for just one XML file to identify the folder?

If I give the destination location as d:/ABC/def I need that folder to be moved to d:/ABC .

Why do you specify the destination location as d:\abc\def when you want to move the detected folder to d:\abc
