I am doing all this in the field (like on Safari) and do not have a
PC available. With a PC, it is a piece of cake. In Windows
explorer, if you have the View Details displayed, you can click on
the file type column and all the files are arranged by file type.
You can select the first file of the desired file type, then holding
the shift key down, click on the last file of that type, and they are
all selected. Then select copy and paste them into what ever other
folder you want.
