Now to get back to my problem.
Okay, I think I may have identified my problem. I am attempting to archive Default Trace files and I was using this command:
Get-ChildItem -Path $tracepath -Filter '*.trc' #-Exclude $currentfile
And the Exclude is for some reason making it so it does not return any files. Currently there are the expected 5. Can I use the -Filter and -Exclude parameters together or are they mutually exclusive? $currentfile is a string like log_10.trc.

I got something working, but the question about -Filter and -Exclude still remains.
Thanks guys. Even Grant who hijacked the thread. Which is fine. Might as well use the expert while he's here.
Thanks Allen, Steve and Greg.
I removed the -Exclude and just did a test on $file.Name -ne $currentfile before I did the move.
