FileCopy Procedure |
Version 6 |
Copies an existing file to a new file.
[ bRet = ] FileCopy ( sExistingFileName, sNewFileName [,bFailIfExists] )
The FileCopy procedure syntax has the following parts:
|
Name |
Type |
Description |
|
bRet |
Bool |
True if successful, False for failure |
|
sExistingFileName |
Val BString |
Name of existing file |
|
sNewFileName |
Val BString |
New file name |
|
bFailIfExists |
Val Bool |
Specifies how this operation is to proceed if a file of the same name as that specified by sNewFileName already exists. See below for more comments. Default is true. |
If the parameter 'bFailIfExists' is TRUE and the new file 'sNewFileName' already exists, the function fails. If this parameter is FALSE and the new file already exists, the function overwrites the existing file and succeeds.
The following example copies the file:
FileCopy("C:\\LogFiles\\TestExec\\A.log","C:\\LogFiles\\TestExec\\Backup\\A.log")
FileRemove, FileCreate, FileRename
