I tried the folowing code in my form but it doesn't seem to work...what's wrong wit it ?


filecopy("c:\test.txt","c:\windows\system")

As you can see i'm trying to copy test.text to the c:\windows\system directory but it give me an error asking for a equal sign somewhere ???
 

Try this


FileCopy "c:\test.txt", "c:\windows\system\text.txt"
 
Calling a function with parentesis (ie: SomeFunction(Argument) ) denotes that you will use the value the function return, and hence you must assign the value to a variable or use it in a condition.
Calling it without (ie: SomeFunction Argument ) denotes that you won't be handling the return value of the function.

Understand? :)
