CopyFile from a:\*.* to c:\*.*

Hi there..

What is the code for diskcopy all files from one selected drive to and other selected drive... for example copy everything from drive A to drive C root directory....?

I try to use the following code in VB6 and I have (div1, drive1 and file1) in my form.

copyfile "a:\*.*", "c:\*.*"

and what is File System Object?

Thank You

Sheley

Files System Object is a DLL (Scripting runtime library) by Microsoft.

Yes, it supports what you ask, copying one directory into another, but then you will have to include this DLL along with your project. There's a VB way to do just that:

Code:

---

Public Sub CopyFromFloppy()
  Dim strFile As String
  Dim strDestFile As String
   
   
    strFile = Dir("A:\*.*")
   
    Do Until strFile = ""
        strDestFile = "C:\" & ParseFile(strFile)
        FileCopy "A:\" & strFile, strDestFile
        strFile = Dir
    Loop
End Sub

Public Function ParseFile(pFileName As
String) As String

Do
        pFile = Mid$(strFileName, InStr(pFileName, "\") + 1)
    Loop While InStr(pFileName, "\") <> 0
   
    ParseFile = pFileName

End Function
