Rama,

For some reason, MS likes to change the syntax of the forfiles.exe utility with each release of their server operating systems.

If you're going to use that against a W2K3 Server, the hyphens have been replaced by forward slashes. More has changed than just the switch character as the functionality of the @FILE, @PATH and @FNAME have also changed.
