I have tried moving it up a DIR ..
# MOVE ORIGINAL TO ../Done/M-archiv
print "move $originalfilenamequantity 1.txt \n";
system("move $originalfilenamequantity ..");
All 4 of the above I gathered from the OP. I can't tell your intentions from your code comment and
print statement.
Some advice: it's best to use absolute paths when performing
system. If you use relative paths like
"..", then that is relative to the current working directory of the spawned
system process (most likely the dir where you launched your program, which may change). Maybe something like this:
my $dest = "$currentdir/.."; # means Z:/SALESD~1/LOGS/ORDERS
my $cmd = "move $originalfilenamequantity $dest";
system($cmd) == 0 or warn("Failed: $cmd");
