I've just tested it from the command line (therefore using % instead of %%) and it works.
It only finds files in the current directory, although it can easily be changed to search other directories. If there are no .jpg files, or no matching .dng files then it won't do anything. In other words, if you have a file called waters.jpg and a copy of the picture in a file called roger.dng it won't recognise that they are the same. -- Bob > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On > Behalf Of David J Brooks > Sent: 31 December 2007 23:50 > To: Pentax-Discuss Mail List > Subject: Re: Lightroom question (Godfrey?) > > I replaced del with echo and all i got was Is there any body out > there, que Pink Floyd > > Dave > > On Dec 31, 2007 2:03 PM, Bob W <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > I've accepted the challenge I set you, and come up with an answer: > > > > for %%f in (*.jpg) do if exist %%~nf.dng del %%~nf.jpg > > > > I haven't tested this as written, so it's at your own risk. > You could > > try replacing 'del' with 'echo' to see what will be deleted. > > > > -- > > Bob > > > > > > > -----Original Message----- > > > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On > > > Behalf Of Bob W > > > Sent: 31 December 2007 18:11 > > > To: 'Pentax-Discuss Mail List' > > > > > Subject: RE: Lightroom question (Godfrey?) > > > > > > I have had a dig around in Lightroom but nothing leaps out as an > > easy > > > way to do it.
