Solution 1

Open a command prompt and type "help for", and check the various options for iterating through files. Type "help if" to look at the if command, for testing if a file exists in the second directory.

I have to append file from location 1 to location 2, if already exists on location 2. Both location may have multiple files of different extension. But i have to append only those files which does not have any extension.

I already suggested the for command for iteration, and the if command for testing. What part of this are you having difficulty with?
