Write multiple files in a directory

Hi all.

 

I am trying to read a directory with many TIFF files, select the latest ones and copy or move them to a new directory.

 

I read the files with a Feature reader using the Directory and File Pathnames format.

The files got the date-time in the name so I use the Sorter to find the latest one and then I use the Sampler to select a few of them.

 

Can someone advise me how to write them now in another directory?

 

Many thanks
