Hiya Jim,

You can copy a folder quickly and easily using the FileSystemObject in Windows Scripting Host*:

fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
FSO.CopyFolder("c:\folder1", "d:\backup\folder1")

*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.
