    If you have a fairly simple requirement to move quit a few documents from one folder to another then look into using the DFC API class IDfMoveOperation, either via a simple Java application or via docbasic.

    Alternatively try products such as Buldoser (Link). I've seen this in action and it can be used to do exactly what you want, but might be expensive.

    Maybe if I don't fully understand but you are looking to perform a simple move.

    You can do simple moves using the Webtop clipboard.

    Edit - > Add to Clipboard

    Go to destination

    You can also use UPDATE DQL to LINK and UNLINK folders. This convenient for batches if you can define a DQL select criteria.

    Using (ALL) predicate in DQL, you can move ALL versions of a document. As for Buldoser, its not free. Its made by Crown Parners.
