>>Has anyone already written anything which copies a directory structure but only copies those files that have changed? I have a utility that does that, but I want to do something specific to VFP files. For example, if the file is part of a form and either the .sct or .scx have changed, I want to copy both the .sct and .scx. The same for reports and classes, et al.
