Hello,

I like to add files to a file collection.  
The button should do the following thing: select all files which contain in the filename "\_001", than create a collection folder with the name e.g. \_001, all selected files then should be added.  
The button works fine, it even creates a folder inside the file collection, but it does not ADD any files into the folder I have created.

Here is the code:

```auto
Set FLATVIEW=On,MixedNoFolders
@set index={dlgstringS|Type in index}
Clipboard SET {$index}
CreateFolder NAME="coll://{$index}" 
SELECT REGEXP "{$index}" HIDEUNSEL
```

Now the last line I took out: the one to tell the button to add the files to the collection.

I have tried 2 ways of adding the files to the files collection: none worked out.

a) Copy TO "coll://{$index}"  
b) Copy TO "coll://{clip}"

Can anyone give me please a hit on what I do wrong?!  
Thanks in advance !
