METHOD:
FileSystemObject.CopyFile
object.CopyFile
source, destination [, overwrite]
This method lets us copy one or more files from one location ( the source)
to another (destination). Wildcards can be used within the source
string, providing it is the last component in the path, to enable the
copying of multiple files, but cannot be used in the destination
string. Note that if the source does
contain wildcards, it is automatically assumed that the destination
is an existing folder and any matching files are copied to it.
The overwrite parameter is a Boolean. True allows the overwriting of existing files in the destination, providing that the permissions on the destination allow it ( if the destination is set as read-only, the CopyFile method will fail). An overwrite setting of False prevents existing files in the destination from being overwritten.
It is recommended that you use the FileExists method when copying or moving a file - if a source file doesn't exist you'll get an error.
Code:
<%
dim filesys
set
filesys=CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
If
filesys.FileExists("c:\sourcefolder\anyfile.html") Then
filesys.CopyFile "c:\sourcefolder\anyfile.html",
"c:\destfolder\"
End If
