Wildcard in directory import script

MorganRS

I'm trying to have a script import directories and require a wildcard because some have different prefixes, but Global Mapper doesn't seem to recognize the wildcard. Am I doing something wrong? Here is the section of my script:

IMPORT_DIR_TREE DIRECTORY="G:\Data_State\%state%\Administrative_Boundaries\*complete" FILENAME_MASKS="*.SHP"

I've also tried it as:

IMPORT_DIR_TREE DIRECTORY="G:\Data_State\%state%\Administrative_Boundaries\?complete" FILENAME_MASKS="*.SHP"

I'm using 17.2

Hello,

The wildcard characters can only be used in the FILENAME_MASKS parameter, not in the DIRECTORY parameter.

Cheers,
