Hi,I'm plotting a scheme to vaguely intelligently replace certain files on a user's desktop by deleting and recopying files.
To do this, I have a TODELETE folder containing the files I want to remove... and a TOADD folder containing the files I subsequently want to add.
The adding is the easy bit - these just get copied to the All Users\Desktop folder, or the user's desktop folder, depending on group memebership.
Deletion is slightly more tricky - I need to enumerate the files in the TODELETE folder and then delete each file's equivalent in the profiles folder. I'd prefer to have the whole thing drag-and-drop, as opposed to maintaining a text file of files for deletion, and a drag&drop addition mechanism.
Now, the fun part:
Using Kixtart 3.62, I can't get the DIR() example in the manual to work on the C:\ folder. Or any folder, for that matter. Unless there's something weird and environmental going on (which I won't rule out), DIR seems broken.
All other functions seem to work fine.
If anyone has any ideas, I'd love to hear them!
Cheers,
Spong.
