    VBScript automation for monthly file transfer.

    Hello all
    I need to make a script to automate copying data from a file directory in C to a file directory in E and then delete the original files. i'm going to jam this in scheduled tasks on said server to run once a month at some point in the night
    i havent touched VB let alone VBScript since 2007 - 2008 when i did it at college for 1 year so my knowledge is limited to say the least.
    Thanks in advance

    I don't use VBscript. I have windows scripting host disabled for security purposes. I would use either Robocopy or if you want a nice gui Richcopy.... Dogpile is your friend... I don't do Google.

    However this might help if you really want to go the VB route... Took me thirty seconds to find this thread using Dogpile.

    Quantum theory in a nutshell: It's so small we don't know where it is, it could be here, it could be there.

    Just 'cos it's legal don't make it right.
