Copy just folder structure?

Hi folks,

I run XP, and was wondering if there is a way to copy all the folders inside another folder, but not their contents.

I have a folder called 'music' and in it are folders with names of individual albums (e.g. 'Blood on the Tracks' and 'Thriller' and 'Get Rich or Die Tryin'). I want to make another set of those folders and put mp3 versions of those albums in the new folders, but i don't want to retype all of the album names if i don't have to.

Thanks,
Jim

If I remember right, you can do that using the xopy command with the '/T' switch. Open a command window and type:

xcopy /?

to see what switches are availibe.
