Hi,

maybe you forgot to use a "\" backslash between @DEsktopDir and $Active.

Filecopy($sFolder & "\" & $Active, @Desktopdir & "\" & $active & ".")

it doesnt work too...

Hi,

then you seem to have a faulty value in one of your variables.

I tend to use ConsoleWrite() to show me the contents of the variables to debug.

The second example will anyway move the same file to the same destination:

a.bc = a.bc.

Anyway I suggest you to match the cases of your variables ($Active = $active) to gain a better overview.

hi GianAutoItProgrammer,

Does this code produce a file on your desktop named "Demo.exe_renamed"?

FileOpen(@DesktopDir & "\Demo1.exe", 2)
FileClose(@DesktopDir & "\Demo1.exe")
FileMove(@DesktopDir & "\Demo1.exe", @DesktopDir & "\Demo.exe_renamed")

If so, then the problem is elsewhere, likely in your variables, like Hannes123 suggested.

When you want to find bug easily use consolewrite

$Active = StringTrimRight(GUICtrlRead(GUICtrlRead($hList)), 1)
ConsoleWrite ( "$sFolder : " & $sFolder & @Crlf )
ConsoleWrite ( "$Active : " & $Active & @Crlf )
$_Filemove = Filemove ( $sFolder & "\" & $Active, @DesktopDir & '\' & $active & ".com" )
ConsoleWrite ( "$_Filemove : " & $_Filemove & @Crlf )

and see if all is correct !

I talk about my previous post !

$Active = StringTrimRight(GUICtrlRead(GUICtrlRead($hList)), 1)
ConsoleWrite ( "$sFolder : " & $sFolder & @Crlf )
ConsoleWrite ( "$Active : " & $Active & @Crlf )
$_Filemove = Filemove ( $sFolder & "\" & $Active, @DesktopDir & '\' & $active & ".com" )
ConsoleWrite ( "$_Filemove : " & $_Filemove & @Crlf )

If you use a compiled program, you should replace the ConsoleWrite() calls with MsgBox (for example).

The console we are talking of (if the script is not compiled) is located on the bottom of the SciTe4AutoIT editor if you press F5 to run the script.
