If I want to to include everything in a folder, can I do something
like:

C:/folder1/*

where * means all folders in folder1 ?
 
In days of dos back slashes were supreme! C:\folder1\*.* should work if you
have such a thing as a folder called "folder1" on your puter. Otherwise you
will need a real name.

FWIW

Click to expand...

That would only specify the contained files and not the folders.

You need to use backslashes, instead of slashes.

The answer is just to use nothing.

C:\folder1\

.... is the whole folder, and everything it contains.
