I'd like to create a VBScript that can automate the process of backing up a "data" folder to another location (another internal hard drive, or to a removable drive or even a CD).

Is there a reliable VBScript routine that can Copy the folder and all it's contents? Perhaps make one that uses the XCopy command...so it can be smart enough to only copy anything that has been changed?

Also...can such a script work equally well on a Windows 98 machine as well as a Windows ME machine?

Any ideas for a good script for backing up folders/files would be appreciated...thanks!
