Hey there.

I'm familiar with the 'Include' subfolder filters, so if I'd like folders starting from 'A to N' I'd use :

\[a-n]*

but I've now been given a huge data set (22,000,000 files) which are stored by using the date as the folder name (YYYY-MM-DD), ie :

2016-04-08
2016-04-16
2016-04-21
2016-05-05
2016-06-02
2016-07-25
2016-09-01
2016-09-16
2016-10-24
2016-10-31
2016-11-14
2016-11-15
2016-12-21
2017-01-24

with hundreds of thousands of files under each folder.

What I need to do is create multiple VV Profiles to select specific numeric ranges of folders by their year and month eg to include April to September 2016, I would ideally use :

\2016-[04-09]*

but does VV support such a filter ?

Thank you for helping.

Hi, could you include by month, e.g. 6 filters or so, one per month?

Ok, I've followed your advice.

So to include folders named between '2016-05' and '2016-10' I've created six Subfolder Filters :

2016-05*
2016-06*
2016-07*
2016-08*
2016-09*
2016-10*

thank you.
