search for partial folder name and return dir to use with batch
<p>Firstly i am still a beginner at scripting so please be gentle. 
I am creating a back up script and I want to be able to search network for part of a file name (which located on a networked External HDD for Backup use), then return the dir to use later to back up the contents of a USB device.
The folder name I am searching for consists of 4 elements as follows: Date-1234567-Type-User.
The part i am looking to search for is the 7 digit id number which is unique where as the other elements may be duplicated a number of times.
the current script i have been using is not returning anything it is giving file not found, could someone point me in the right direction my script is as follows, also i am working on windows 7.</p>

<pre><code>@echo off
:start

set /p path=enter id no.:
for /r %%# in (.) do (
       Echo %%~nx# | find "string" "%path%" 1&gt;NUL &amp;&amp; (
               Echo Full Path: %%~nx#
               Echo Filename : %%~nx#
               Echo Directory: %%~p#
       )
)

if defined p (
echo %p%
) else ( Echo file not found
)
pause
goto backup

:backup
if not exist "%p%"\"usb download" md "%p%"\"usb download"

if exist (
xcopy /y "USB" "%p%"\usb download
)

pause
goto start
</code></pre>

<p>the Xcopy lines work on their own creating a new folder and copying the contents however i have to write the complete file path manually which is quite extensive and laborious so if i could automate this it would help dramatically.
I thank you for your help in advance, I have googled and searched my heart out, but as I said I am a beginner and my brain is melting.
thanks all.</p>
