I searched the archives and didn't see anything on this. I need to
copy the contents of one folder into another. On the chance that a

make it unique to the destination folder. What is the proper (best)
way to do this. The only idea I have is alter the name of the
original file, copy, then change the name back to what it was.
While this is not a major issue to do this, I'm thinking their
might be a better way. Anybody?
See if the destination exists first and if it does alter the
destination name
A copy should not touch the originals file name
If you are using folderItem's CopyFileTo method then you need a
destination FolderItem anyways
destFolder = <where ever you are copying to>
destName = original.Name
while destFolder.Child(destName).exists
iteration = iteration + 1
destName = original.Name + " " + format(iteration,"#")
wend
destination = destFolder.Child(destName)
original.CopyFileTo destination
