Solve : Echo Message Based on most recent file extension?

1.	Solve : Echo Message Based on most recent file extension?
Answer» I need to do a sort of a directory based on time/extension. If the most recent FILE extension is XXX then I want to display a message. If the most recent file extension is YYY then I was to display a different message. Using Windows XP. Example - File1.XXX - 12/17/2010 11:00 am File2.YYY - 12/15/2010 12:15 pm Message - "XXX is the most recent file extension. Any ideas would be APPRECIATED. Thanks! CODE: [Select]echo off for /f "delims=" %%A in ('dir /b /od /a-d ^\| find /v "%~nx0"') do set lastext=%%~xA if /i "%lastext%"==".XXX" goto xxx if /i "%lastext%"==".YYY" goto yyy goto neither :xxx echo last file had extension xxx goto END :yyy echo Last file had extension yyy goto end :neither echo Last file had neither xxx nor yyy extension :end echo Finished That answer was awesome, fast, AND it worked!!
