Copying File with no extension - 6/25/2008 8:16:41 AM

Status: offline 		I am attempting to copy a file that does not have an extension but I was originaly using 'CopyFolder.'

I was using the line:

fso.copyFolder "c:\<Folder1>\<SubFolder1>\<Sub2>\<Sub2>\<Sub3>\<Myfile with no extension>", "H:\<Folder1>\<SubFolder1>\<Sub2>\<Sub2>\<Sub3>\", "True"

I get the message "Err# 76 - Path not found"

From what I have written, it seems like I am telling the machine to copy a folder with my file name.

When I change the original file to "MyFile.exe" and change my code line to reflect this, it works perfectly.

I have seen a GetFile statement but am not familiar with it. Is that what I am supposed to substitue the CopyFolder with?

What am I doing wrong?

Status: offline 		If you are copying a file why are you using the CopyFolder method? Why not use the CopyFile method?

Thanks.
