• i thought it was pretty straight forward from there;

    you would simply modify my example with a WHERE statement...

    WHERE filz.[name]='XXX_2012'

    if you need a fulls cript, i'm pretty sure if you search teh script submissions here on SSC, you can find one that does it,a nd modify it with my example so that it limits it to a specific file group;
