Ok, I have found the problem but not the solution... Perhaps you may have an idea...

The server from which I am copying is asking for a username & password to gain access. Is there a way to pass the username and password?

Thanks again...
Nic

Hi,

I've had a look and on the face of it the code seems ok. I only have a Mac, so I can't test it here. One thing I noticed from the docs:

Note: In a standalone application the Common library is implemented as a hidden group and made available when the group receives its first openBackground message. During the first part of the application's startup process, before this message is sent, the revCopyFilecommand is not yet available. This may affect attempts to use this command in startup, preOpenStack, openStack, or preOpenCardhandlers in the main stack. Once the application has finished starting up, the library is available and the revCopyFilecommand can be used in any handler.

Not sure if this has any bearing.

Otherwise, here are some suggestions:

1.  add the lines:

    if there is a file source then
     answer "There is file:" && source
    end if

to Just before the revCopyFile call.

2. Change the source folder to be on the same Machine as the destination folder as a Test, if this works then it's something to do with the source file being on a different machine.

3. Try it without spaces in the path and name, I've tried it on a mac and it works ok, but don't have a PC.


All the Best
Dave

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...

Hi,

AFAIK it works ok with spaces, paste your code into an email and I'll take a look, it works fine for me.

All the Best

Yeah I hear you... Problem is my revCopyFile is returning a 1, so I am not too sure what this means(other than it's in error). Does this command also worry about spaces in the folder names?

Hi,

What problems are you having with the revCopyFile command? AFAIK it works ok. This is a better way of doing since depending on what you are doing, using the shell or an external copy command may cause problems if you open the new file too quickly.

Hi all,

having tried, with no result, to copy files using revCopyFile, I decided to try and use shell("copy"). The way I am doing it may seem a little odd but my syntax is this...

put quote & "copy "&source&space&tLocalPath&quote into tTest
set the hideConsoleWindows to true
get shell(tTest)

This works fine but only if the folder I am copying to does not have any spaces in it's name.

Can someone tell me how I would get around this problem. It's obviously a DOS issue but I am not sure of the syntax.

Thanks
Nic
