  1. Hi Terry, thanks for your reply. You may be right, but I don't see how consistent monitoring is a problem when it's only moving the files which are 10 days old. Knowing my routine, there is a very small chance that such file or folder would be accessed at that exact time. My workflow is very dynamic, so my desktop gets filled up quickly. Can you explain how you handle everything but the things you're not sure about? I've done several macros up until now, but nothing too complex. This one I'm really not sure how to do.
  2. I'm looking for a macro to help me organize files and folders on my desktop (D:\Desktop). Every file and folder that has a creation date older than 10 days would be placed in a folder called "Archive" (D:\Desktop\Archive). Within that folder, the macro would automatically group files into months based on their creation date. The folders would be named "YYYY-MM. The macro would monitor the desktop folder constantly and move files in real time or with a short delay, and temporarily skip a file that is currently being used and move it once available. This seems like something fairly common, so I was wondering if anyone has done anything similar? Can it be done with Macro Express?
