Filelist

Discussion

The COPY_FILES() function copies a list of files from a source folder to a destination folder. Filelist should be a list of files relative to SourceFolder. If there are subfolders within Filelist, they will be created. If the destination file exists, the user will be prompted to overwrite.

Example

dim lst as C
lst = filefind.get("c:\documents\temp\*.gif")
