list of files copied inserted to log

[moogeboo]

hi,

i have a vb script that copies files in a directory if it detects any files in that directory. This runs every 5 minutes, and it logs when it runs. Now, for debugging purposes, i'd like to be able to specifically log the individual files that it copies and write the filenames of the files into the log.

Set FSo=Createobject("Scripting.FilesystemObject&quot
fso.COPYFILE "D:\USERS\" & cname & "\INCOMING\*.*","D:\USERS\" & cname & "\ARCHIVE\INCOMING\"

this is basically the method i have to copy the files.
any assistance with this will be appreciated!

thanks
M

if it detects any files in that directory

How your script detects that ?
I guess the detection routine have provision to write what you want in the log file.

Hope This Help, PH.

This is just some pseudo code, but should give you an idea of what you need to do:

Set ts = fso.CreateTextFile (strComputer &".txt", ForAppending)
Base = "D:\Users"

For each folder in Base
SubFolder = "D:\Users\" & folder & "\incoming\"
For Each file in SubFolder
If Not fso.FileExists("D:\Users\" & folder & "\incoming\" & file) Then
fso.COPYFILE "D:\USERS\" & folder & "\INCOMING\" & file,"D:\USERS\" & folder & "\ARCHIVE\INCOMING\"
ts.write "D:\USERS\" & folder & "\INCOMING\" & file & " Copied"
End If
Next
Next

I hope you find this post helpful. Please let me know if it was.

Regards,

Mark
