Directive to skip a file type

I know how to make a direct to skip a file type in a specific place.  My issue is I have certain file type i want to skip and it is found on different drives on different folders.  How can I make it skip the file type anywhere its found?

I tried this but it did not work.

+skip: *.mdf

It would work if you place in in a 'local' directive file on the client (...\directory\nsr.dir)

If you use a 'global' directive (a directive resource) it should read

  << "pathname" >>

     +skip: *.mdf

See the default directives for examples.

If you use global directive as bingo suggested, and use "/" as path (on Windows), it will skip it on all locations found by save set All.
