#205901 - 2012-10-04 08:26 PM Question about Syntax
schwarzchr schwarzchr Just in Town Registered: 2009-08-05 Posts: 4 Loc: Germany	Hi, if a file in a folder exists i want to copy all files from an folder to another folder. In the folder where i want to copy from the Username ist part of the foldername. Is this the right syntax ? Code: $Desktop_Loc = '%USERPROFILE%\Desktop IF EXIST "\\serv01\home\"+@USERID+"\windows\migration.txt" - homedrive of the user IF EXIST "\\serv01\e$\anwprofl\tsp_"+@USERID+"" - profile-path of the user copy "\\serv01\e$\anwprofl\tsp_"+@USERID+"\." "$Desktop_Loc\." /c /s ENDIF ENDIF It would be nice, if you answer me, because i do not work all days with kix.

You need to match your quotes. Double or single quotes does not really matter as long as they are used in pairs. Never include variables or macro’s in a string. They may not be resolved correctly. The dollar character is a reserved character in kix so using it in a path might cause issues. NoVarsInStrings should take care of this. Commenting lines can be done with the ; character and not the minus character. Regular users will not have access to the admin share on any computer, \\server01\e$ in your script. Personally I not care so much for the /c parameter in the copy command. It continues even if there are errors. I would like it to stop if there are errors and put in some error logging code so it is clear what is going wrong. The code below is a bit cleaned up and at first sight looks like it should do the job but I did not test it. Code: $rc = SetOption("NoVarsInStrings", "On") $Desktop_Loc = ExpandEnvironmentVars(%USERPROFILE%) $Desktop_Loc = $Desktop_Loc + "\Desktop" If Exist ("\\serv01\home\" + @USERID + "\windows\migration.txt") ;homedrive of the user If Exist ("\\serv01\e$\anwprofl\tsp_" + @USERID) ; profile-path of the user Copy "\\serv01\e$\anwprofl\tsp_" + @USERID + "\." $Desktop_Loc + "\" /c /s EndIf EndIf Edited by Mart (2012-10-08 12:21 PM) Edit Reason: Corrected the code _________________________ Mart - Chuck Norris once sold ebay to ebay on ebay.
