Hi,

I am trying to run a workflow which includes copying all files of a certain type to another folder.  I am using this command:

mv ./*.cer ./Archive

but I get the error: mv: cannot stat './*.cer': No such file or directory

I understand that the shell is not interpreting the * correctly, but can't find a way to pass it to the shell correctly.
Anyone help?
thanks,
