Copy Directories...

[rockies1]

I need to copy directories of files over to a network drive...

They are currently on CDs and need to go to a network drive in a folder to be created before copying. This folder will be the CD name.

For example:
I have a CD named CD215 in my CD drive. On the CD are the folders 1902, 1903, 1904, & 1905 each with several files in them

I need to:
1. Create a folder named CD215 on my network drive (I can do this part)
2. Copy folders 1902, 1903, 1904, & 1905 INCLUDING their contents to the CD215 folder I just created...

Anyone know how to do this?

Thanks!!

Probably the easiest way is to use FileSystem object. So, add a reference to Microsoft Scripting Runtime and use something like this:


Dim oFSO As New FileSystemObject

oFSO.CopyFolder "D:\1902\*", "N:\CD215\"
oFSO.CopyFolder "D:\1903\*", "N:\CD215\"
oFSO.CopyFolder "D:\1904\*", "N:\CD215\"
oFSO.CopyFolder "D:\1905\*", "N:\CD215\"


Where N is a network drive.

NOTE: You would have to include Scripting Runtime (scrrun.dll) with your application when you distribute it.

OK, one problem is that the folder names won't be the same on each CD. Is there a way to copy all folders, no matter what their name?

NEVERMIND....Had I played before I wrote, I would have figured it out...

I go it to work using:
oFSO.CopyFolder "D:\*", "C:\temp\"

Thanks for the great info!!
