Hi Brenda,
You can do this using Windows Scripting Host:
fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
FSO.CopyFolder("c:\folder1", "d:\folder1bak")
WSH is available for download for Windows 95, and is built into Windows 98 and NT. You'll find it along with more extensive information at
Microsoft's Sripting Technologies site.
>Having trouble with the syntax. What to make a backup copy of folder1, something like folder1bak. If folder1bak exist, I will do nothing. Want to create folder1bak and then copy all the files from folder1 to folder1bak.
