Nadya,

I backup my local work out to the server every morning using the following VBScript file. It requires the Shell.Application being installed.

' Backup.vbs

Const FOF_NOCONFORMMKDIR = &H200
Const FOF_NOCONFIRMATION = &H010
Const FOF_SIMPLEPROGRESS = &H100
Dim cSource, cTarget, oShell, oFolder
cSource = "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\VFP98\Ida"
cTarget = "F:\Shawdev\Ida"
Set oShell = CreateObject("Shell.Application")
Set oFolder = oShell.Namespace("F:\Shawdev\VFP98")
oFolder.CopyHere cSource, FOF_NOCONFORMMKDIR + FOF_NOCONFIRMATION + FOF_SIMPLEPROGRESS
cSource = "D:\FPW26\Launch"
cTarget = "F:\Shawdev\Launch"
oFolder.CopyHere cSource, FOF_NOCONFORMMKDIR + FOF_NOCONFIRMATION + FOF_SIMPLEPROGRESS

You could just use the CopyFolder method from the Scripting.FileSystemObject. I prefer using the Shell.Application because it lets me know the progress.

Selecting the individual directories to copy, however complicates things. I'd simply copy everything and then delete what I didn't want. It's less complex since otherwise you'd have to recurse the diretory tree, building the necessary directories and copying files as required.
