Robocopy file parameter not working properly (intermittently)

Hi,

I am trying to use robocopy to move outdated files to a new folder, here is the script I used:

robocopy ".\ori_folder" ".\archive_folder\2007" "200710*.*" "200711*.*" "200712*.*" /MOV /r:3 /w:10 /sec /log+:"Archive_2007_file.log"

I expect the script will only move files with name begin with "200710" or "200711" or "200712",

however, some files not meeting the criteria also been moved...

you can see from the below result log that in the end of the file list, files begin with 2011 and 2012 also being copied.

this symptom occurs intermittently,  with the same pool of files in the source folder, sometimes the script works fine, but sometimes the same script will move unexpected files.

Is there anything wrong with my script?
