Help with a VBscript to distribute files - 8/7/2008 5:59:32 AM

I need some help with a vbscript to distrbute files sequentially from a Folder.
Is any one interested in helping me with this?

Someone suggested this: "You can use the FileSystemObject to get a list of all the files in Folder A. Then use a for loop to iterate through the list. Then use do: <your for loop variable> mod 4 to determine which folder to place it in and move the file. That should evenly distribute the files."

But I'm not code-knowledable enough to understand how that solution might work. I'd like to take any files that arrive into the Upload Directory and move them into 4 separate destination folders evenly, so that one destination doesn't have most of the files.

Any help or other suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

Have you searched? Distributing files evenly across several folders has been discussed in the past here.
