I have a program that generates an text file based on various processes handled. I want two buttons, one that deletes this file and exits, the other that copies it to another locations and exits.

The original filename is stored in a global variable... gOutFname
The destination filename is stored in a edit box.... this.txtOutFname.value

I have tried:

COPY FILE gOutFname TO this.txtOutFname.value
COPY FILE &gOutFname TO this.txtOutFname.value
COPY FILE gOutFname to &this.txtOutFname.value
COPY FILE &gOutFname to &this.txtOutFname.value

none seem to work. I either get an error or I get a file created in my default directory of &this.txtOutFname.value or this.txtOutFname.value

This should be simple !!!

Oh yea, I then need to use DELETE FILE on the other button... somehow.
