Copy folders/files only if it does not exists in the destination

[tbscmgi]

I'm trying to copy folders/files from \\it\prod\*, to \\it\backup\prod
but only if the folders/files does not exists in the \\it\backup\prod.

I'm using vbscript.

Thanks for any help in advance.

Sub ShowCopyFileBackup
FCF = "\\isd-track\images\* "
FCT = "\\isd\backup\testi"
FSO.CopyFolder FCF , FCT

FCF = "\\isd-track\prod\* "
FCT = "\\isd\backup\testp"
FSO.CopyFolder FCF , FCT
End Sub

The problem I'm having is that when the user run this script it keeping coping the same over again. I only want to copy the folders/files when if does not exsist if FCT.

Thanks

Why don't you just use RoboCopy.exe that you can get from MS??
