I would like to write a short batch file that copies folders (including all their subfolders) from one drive to another. We use WIN NT 4.0, but I don't know how to use Windows Scripting language. I've written dozens of batch files over the years, but I don't remember how to do this.

Type "xcopy /?" at the command prompt and read about how it is used. you'll need to use switches too. Good Luck
