I work part-time at a college and i have been given the task of organizing a HUGE collection of lab reports on file. The only reports they want to save are in pdf form. The only problem is that there are 780 folders with 14,000+ files mixed in with the few pdfs!!!

Does anyone know of a program that i can point at the parent directory and pull out the pdfs in all of the various sub directories???

I've been working for about an hour and have only finished the A's...

Thanks in advance!!!

Start Menu -> Search.
Filter it down to the folder with all the PDFs in it, then do a search in there for "*.pdf". You can then select all the files and move them into somewhere else.
