Batch File Or script Required

Hello friends,
I hv two folders on my windows xp c: drive both contain 50 to 60 same folders . Now i hv to create a batch file which will copy all files from each subfolder in each folder to a new folder such that it only copies the unique file from each folder to newly created folder.
Example

folder 1
subfolder
file1 file2


folder 2
subfolder
file1 file3

the new folder should be
newfolder

subfolder
file1 file2 file3


Any help will be highly appreciated..

I would go here and repost your question. They live for this kind of stuff.

are these to main folders structures the same as far as subfolder names?

I'm not sure if I real clear about what you're talking about but you could just try creating the new folder

open folder one and select all and then copy
right click the new folder select paste

open folder two and select all and then copy
right click the new folder select paste

if you gonna do this all the time I could see making a batch file
or if there is something more that I'm not understanding

for %x in (*.*) do if not exist "c:\newfolder\subfolder\%x" xcopy %x "c:\newfolder\subfolder"
cd\
