Hello,  
I want to create a FileSet of all&nbsp; Dll files under a directory Base recursively, but want to exclude all files that are in or under directories called Test. So include \*.dll but exclude \*\Test\* &nbsp; .Is this possibble with a FileSet?  
Thanks.

Hi Jaap,  
  
With the exclusion, just specify “Test” and it should work
