I have a series of files I need to move into folders.

The file names will always start with a number (i.e. 2015_071, 2015_072).

The files will always be consistently named at their start in this way.

The folders were I am moving the files to will also start with the same number but have a 'second' part which is different (i.e. '2015_071 (Adam)', '2015_071(Brown)').

Is it possible to move files to a folder where you only 'know' only part of the name of a folder? The move command/function does not seem to allow for such a thing.

I am a very basic user of Hazel so I cannot see a way to do this.

Help would be very gratefully received.

You would normally use the "Sort into subfolder" action but it does require you to specify the whole name. For now, you'd have to use a script to do what you want though I'm looking into adding a feature to support this in the future.

Thank you very much for the reply, and I do hope you can add such a function.
