"move the new files" new, as defined by what? ===================================== Helping others achieve escape felicity M2

the source folder is a shared folder . I want to copy the files in the source folder to the destination folder . Next , I want to delete the the files copied from the source folder .As soon as a file comes in the source folder I want it to be automatically copied to destination . That means this batch file should be running in the back ground .... I hope you understood the scenarion .. How can I implement this .......

Please see the scenario below . Scenario : To write a batch file to copy files from source folder to destination folder . Once the batch file is run , as soon as a file is uploaded in the source folder it should be copied to destination folder .

There are helpers here in many languages. Try a new thread something like: script to monitor for incoming files. HTH ===================================== Helping others achieve escape felicity M2

You can have a batch file running in the background with; BAT 2 EXE Compiler. There is a "invisible" option. BAT 2 EXE DOWNLOAD LINK: http://www.softpedia.com/dyn-postdo... I will try on the script, but @ school atm. LOL MUs, Happy is one who says I am an Ottoman.

Thank you ... Mu .. eagerly waiting for the script .... Thanks a lot ... Regards Renjith Madhavan

Sorry for my late response :/ Compile this batch file (if it works) with BAT 2 EXE Compiler, (link above) with the 'invisible option' so it does run in background. (kill it in processes if needed.) Run the batch file in the source folder. REM SCRIPT START--- @echo off REM Set the destination directory here below. set DESTINATION=D:\MOVED_FILES REM Moving files here. (in a loop) :MOVEFILES MOVE /Y *.* %DESTINATION% goto MOVEFILES REM SCRIPT END--- The move command is an internal command that is available in the below Microsoft operating systems. MS-DOS 6.0 and above Windows 95 Windows 98 Windows ME Windows NT Windows 2000 Windows XP Windows Vista Windows 7 http://www.computerhope.com/movehlp... Please test it out before compiling. You can schedule the task too if you like.. Let us know if it works. Again sorry for the late response. MUs, Happy is ONE who says I am an OttoMAN.
