Hello Experts I would please like some assistance with the following problem.
I have a lot of databases in a file folder on my hard drive (F:\mdbs)
I would like to create two buttons on a form that:
Button One
1. Copies (move) the files that are in (F:\mdbs)to a new folder F:\Archived\Mdbs\2003.
2. List the files that were moved in the directory and gives a message saying that everything is complete and tells them the name and location of the folder.
Button Two
2. I would like the user to be able to transfer(copy/move/save)to disk the database (or database)of choice.
3. List the files transferred and gives a messages saying that everything is complete and tells them the name of files copied.
For example:
F:\mdbs (List of Files) Move In Dir F:\Archived\Mdbs\2003
--------------------- ---------------------------
Testdb1.mdb Testdb2.mdb
Testdb2.mdb Testdb3.mdb
Testdb4.mdb
When button is clicked on: It list all the databases in F:\mdbs the user can then select which database to move to F:\Archived\Mdbs\2003\ (which is also present)or to enter in a name for the new folder and if the folder doesn't exit create it.or gives them an option to point to an existing folder.
Results: (New Folder or Exisitng folder showing)
Existing Folder F:\Archived\Mdbs\2003-----------------------------------
Testdb2.mdb
Message: Your files have been copied to F:\Archived\Mdbs\2003
I am using MS Access 2000. Below is what I have so far, but it just copies all files to an existing folder.
Private Sub cmdCopyFiles_Click()
Dim strSourcePath, strDestinationPath As String
Dim FS As Object
strSourcePath = " F:\mdbs*.*"
strDestinationPath = " F:\Archived\Mdbs\2003\ "
Set FS = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject"
FS.CopyFile strSourcePath, strDestinationPath
End Sub
