Using Shell to copy files

[Nic Prioleau]

Hi Dave,
Here's the source....

put the effective filename of this stack into tLocalPath
set the itemDelimiter to "/"
put "" into item -1 of tLocalPath

if tempSFile = tempLFile then
    if line 5 of thisSLine > line 5 of thisLFile then
         put tServerPath & tempSFile into source -- So source looks like 
this "\\83.143.28.54\netcaresource\filesToDownload\AeroMedical.qrl"
                                                                       --  
And tLocalPath = "C:/Netcare991 Source/"
         revCopyFile source,tLocalPath
         if the result is empty then
            put tempSFile & " File Updated Sucessfully..."&cr after 
tempMessage
         end if
   end if
end if

Thanks for your assistance there Dave...
Nic
