Gary,
I am not at a PC with Rbase, but I do believe the command should be
Copy &vfile5 .vfile5a
This is from memory (and stretching it at that) but I have also performed copy
command with the drive\path\filename in the first variable and just the file
name
in the second. If I remember correctly, it works with & on the first and . on
the
second.
I cannot test it at present, but give it a try.

Subject: [RBASE-L] - Copy Command
I am having a brain freeze at this time. I am using the copy command to
rename files using student names within the file name. Just trying to
personalize the information. I do this for 3 files. There can be a total of 7
attachments emailed to the student.
The problem: The copy command does not seem work. I know I have used the
copy command in the past to recreate the attachments with the student names as
a part of the file. However, at this point, I cannot get the copy command to
work.
The command I use is: Copy &vfile5 &vfile5a
Of course the file names are a composite of commands. The file is being
copied from one directory to the current directory and adding the name of the
student. Below is the actual definitions.
vfile5 = C:\AFOLBI\AP_Info\DrMinistryHa TEXT
ndbook.pdf
vfile5a = DrMinistryHandbook_Patty_Eisen TEXT
mann.pdf
As I mentioned, I have done this in the past with no problems. But as today,
this does not work.
Does anyone have any ideas what I may be missing?
Thanks
Gary
