I'm trying to write this script that will copy down a file from the server, if it does not exists locally. I can't get my thoughts together, so I need some help.
Here's what I have:

FILE1="c:\program files\app\file.txt"

Set objFSO = CreateObject ("Scripting.FileSystemObject")

If objFSO.FileExists(FILE1) Then
Wscript.sleep 1000
Else
objFSO.CopyFile \\Server\Apps\Program\file.txt, "C:\Program Files\app\"
End If

This works, but is there another way to write this, simplified way so that I don't have the Wscript.sleep?? If the file exists, I don't want it to do anything.

Thanks in advance...

If Not objFSO.FileExists(FILE1) Then
objFSO.CopyFile \\Server\Apps\Program\file.txt, "C:\Program Files\app\"
End If
