Gary, 

 I am back at my desk and have the following in a 24/7 auto running program.  
It 

works fine without issue.  version V8 



IF vchk > 0 THEN 

SET VAR vedifile = 'G:\RBTI\Edi_V8\*.850' 
SET VAR vcopyto = 'G:\RBTI\Edi_V8\Archive\*.850' 
COPY . vedifile . vcopyto 

IF verror <> 0 THEN 

vchk > 0 THEN 

SET VAR vedifile = 'G:\RBTI\Edi_V8\*.850' 
SET VAR vcopyto = 'G:\RBTI\Edi_V8\Archive\*.850' 
COPY . vedifile . vcopyto 

IF verror <> 0 THEN

Bob, I tried your suggestion and I am having no luck.   It seems as if the copy 
function is just responding.  Do you know if this is an RBase command or a 
command of the operating system?  I just wonder if something has changed along 
the line and I am just now noticing a change in function. 



Thanks 

Gary

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. 





-Bob

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
