As usual, just copy to a text file, name it as "whatever.ahk" and run it :)

A few important details:
- There are a few msgboxes that can you probably won't like, because they break the workflow. If so, just delete the lines with "msgbox".
- The order isn't relevant, as long as you drop the files on the correct GUIs.
- If you decide to keep the boxes, you can cancel the move operation by selecting "exit" from the tray menu before pressing ok on the first box.

THIS IS IMPORTANT: if you remove the message boxes, there's no way to cancel the operation. Still, the old file will be moved to the recycle bin.

[edit] Here's the source in a .ahk file:  and the compiled version: [ Invalid Attachment ] [/edit]

fantastic work, jgpaiva.

as i use the revolutionary and always astounding, dialogmove, i don't mind the message boxes appearing  ;) but i may remove them in a minute.

i have named the script "bodysnatcher" as a tribute to the movie "invasion of the bodysnatchers" as this pretty much describes the process that happens to the files.

cody will send you something in a minute.

many many thanks.

Now that's a catchy name :P
I love when people come up with names for the programs i make. Finding the right name is half the effort. At least for me ;)
