Hi,  
I would like to Iterator folders and do something. &nbsp;Would it be possible to get folders list that matching mask? Other words, folders names only YYYYMMDD with&nbsp;ascending. &nbsp;I did try Folder Iterator but it doesn't have more options available.  
  
Appreciate your help.  
  
Jeegs

Hi   
  
 I can’t think of a way to do that automatically… perhaps using a FileSet, set the Include Pattern to directories only, and then under the iterator check if the folder matches the pattern somehow (regex perhaps).
