I am trying to use revCopyFile for the first time. In the course of
trying to work out why it does not do it for me, I put the following
test script in the message box:
put "/Elsewhere/Users/davidv/Desktop/Telstra usage" into sPath
put "/Elsewhere/Users/davidv/tmp/" into dPath
put spath & return & dpath
revCopyFile spath,dpath
The message box shows the two paths as written above, but not copy
happens (and nor if I include a file name as part of dPath).
If I switch the last two lines, thus:
put "/Elsewhere/Users/davidv/Desktop/Telstra usage" into sPath
put "/Elsewhere/Users/davidv/tmp/" into dPath
revCopyFile spath,dpath
put spath & return & dpath
Then not only does the copy not happen but the message box remains
obstinately empty.
What gives, please?
thanks
David
