    Selective deletion

    Here's another seemingly simple question that's eluding me.

    I know that if I want to delete all the text files in a directory
    I can just type:

    del *.txt

    But what if I want to delete everything except the text
    files? Or to make matters more complicated, I want to delete
    everything except files that end in .txt or .bat?

    Thanks all, Dexahol

    P.S. I should add, this is on a pure DOS 6.22 machine, so there's no multiple selection capabilty of File Manager.
