Backing-Up Code

[Rewl 0]

My code isn't working, syntax is correct but when ever I run it to test it, it doesn't work.

#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>
#include <WindowsConstants.au3>
HotKeySet("{ESC}" , "close")
#Region ### START Koda GUI section ### Form=
Global $Form1 = GUICreate("Back-Up by Rewl", 393, 288, 192, 124)
Global $Button1 = GUICtrlCreateButton("Backup to H:/", 120, 16, 131, 57, $WS_GROUP)
Global $Checkbox1 = GUICtrlCreateCheckbox("Favorites", 16, 96, 97, 17)
Global $Checkbox2 = GUICtrlCreateCheckbox("Desktop", 16, 120, 97, 17)
Global $Checkbox3 = GUICtrlCreateCheckbox("Music", 16, 144, 97, 17)
GUISetState(@SW_SHOW)
#EndRegion ### END Koda GUI section ###

Do
    $msg = GUIGetMsg()
    If $msg = $Button1 Then
        DirCreate("H:\Back Up")
        If GUICtrlRead($Checkbox1) = $GUI_CHECKED Then ConsoleWrite ( "DirCopy Favorites " & @Crlf )
        If GUICtrlRead($Checkbox2) = $GUI_CHECKED Then ConsoleWrite ( "DirCopy Desktop " & @CRLF )
        If GUICtrlRead($Checkbox3) = $GUI_CHECKED Then ConsoleWrite ( "DirCopy Music " & @Crlf )
        MsgBox(0 , "Back-Up Complete" , "Your files have been backed up.")
    EndIf
Until $msg = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE

Func close()
    MsgBox(0, "Back-Up by Rewl" , "Thank you for using Back-Up by Rewl")
    Exit
    EndFunc

What do you mean by "doesn't work."?

I tested the code and it does what it is supposed to do: Write Text to the Console or to a MsgBox.

It seems to do just what it ought to...

It displays messages on the console, depending on which boxes are checked.

Wherein lies the problem?

it doesn't back up the files when you press backup

[water 2,393]

It can't do any backups because there is no backup code in your script. It only creates a directory.

I think you should remove the ConsoleWrite statements and replace them with Dircopy commands.

So what code would be used to make it "compile" and than be moved
