Hi,I have only just started using File Sets, so I may be using it incorrectly. However here is the problem I am having.I define a FileSet, whith in it I define the Filespec as:Filespec \*.h, \*.hpp, \*.cpp, \*.pasRecursive = yesI then define a Fileset Copy/Move which used the FileSet specified above. When I run this two action , I get zero files copied (138 files exist)However, if I define a Filespec per file type, then it works fine.What am I doing wrong?

Hi Daniel,  
  
Thanks for posting.  
  
Each filespec (ie \*.h, \*.hpp, etc.) should be a separate Include Pattern. Click the Add Pattern button on the Include Pattern property page to add each file type.  
  
I see that the example patterns show multiple filetypes inside a single pattern, but AFAIK this is not actually possible (sorry, it’s a bug.)
