Getting info out of an array?

[Chimaera]

Ok prob a simple one but i made an array like this

expandcollapse popup

#include <Date.au3>
Global $sFoundFiles
Local $aArray = DriveGetDrive("REMOVABLE")
If @error Then
MsgBox(4096, "Drive Error", "No Drives Available." & @CRLF & @CRLF & _
   "Please Insert Drive")
Else
For $i = 1 To $aArray[0]
  $FolderList = _FolderSearch($aArray[$i] & "Dcim") ; $FolderList=_FolderSearch(@SystemDir, '', True, 125)
  ConsoleWrite($FolderList)
  If FileExists($FolderList) Then

;~  Local $files = ""
;~  For $i In $aArray
;~   $sFoundFiles = $files & $i & @CRLF
;~  Next
;~  $sFoundFiles = FileExists($aArray[$i] & "Dcim")

   FileCopy($sFoundFiles, @DesktopDir & "Backup " & _Date_Time_GetLocalTime(), 9)
   MsgBox(4096, "Drive Test" & $i, "Removable Drive " & StringUpper($aArray[$i] & "") & " Dcim Exist")
  Else
   MsgBox(4096, "Drive Test" & $i, "Removable Drive " & StringUpper($aArray[$i] & "") & " No Files Found")
  EndIf
Next
EndIf

What im trying to do is if i stick my camera on pc it will auto copy the files into a folder on the desktop using FileCopy

The items ive marked off are diff things ive been trying the latest being the FolderSearch from Azjio

But i cant get it to pass the folder from the array so i can then get it to use the filecopy

Post the foldersearch function, and FileCopy function probably wont work since $sFoundFiles = nothing.

[Chimaera]

first post updated with funcion

thats the issue how do i get the prensce of the folder i need into a variable for filecopy

I would use the standard UDF _FileListToArray

$aFolderList = _FileListToArray($aArray[$i],"*.*",2)

For $i2 = 1 To $aFolderList[0]
FileCopy($sFoundFiles, @DesktopDir & "Backup " & _Date_Time_GetLocalTime(), 9)
Next

[Chimaera]

i Think ive confused myself now, this is what i have

It runs but no copy

#include <File.au3>
#include <Date.au3>

Local $aArray = DriveGetDrive("REMOVABLE")
If @error Then
MsgBox(4096, "Drive Error", "No Drives Available." & @CRLF & @CRLF & _
   "Please Insert Drive")
  Else
For $i = 1 To $aArray[0]
  If FileExists($aArray[$i] & "Dcim") Then
  $aFolderList = _FileListToArray($aArray[$i],"*.*",2)
  For $i2 = 1 To $aFolderList[0]
  FileCopy($aFolderList, @DesktopDir & "Backup " & _Date_Time_GetLocalTime(), 9)
  Next
   MsgBox(4096, "Drive Test" & $i, "Removable Drive " & StringUpper($aArray[$i] & "") & " Dcim Exist")
  Else
   MsgBox(4096, "Drive Test" & $i, "Removable Drive " & StringUpper($aArray[$i] & "") & " No Files Found")
  EndIf
Next
EndIf

[JohnOne]

Try this

FileCopy($aArray[$i] & "Dcim" & $aFolderList[$i2], @DesktopDir & "Backup " & _Date_Time_GetLocalTime(), 9)

EDIT:

Are you sure it is folders you want to copy?

If so use DirCopy() might be best.

Well i need to copy the folder and all the stuff within it.

Think of it as a backup for my camera, eventually ill add it to startup so whenever i plug in my camera it auto copies all the current files in the camera

edit

It displays the correct drive with arraydisplay but then ignores all the array stuff and jumps to the message

For $i = 1 To $aDriveCheck[0]
   _ArrayDisplay($aDriveCheck, "FileList") ; <<<<<<<<<<<this works to here
  If FileExists($aDriveCheck[$i] & "Dcim") Then
   $aFolderList = _FileListToArray($aDriveCheck[$i], "*.*", 2)
    _ArrayDisplay($FolderList, "FileList")
   For $i2 = 1 To $aFolderList[0]
    FileCopy($aDriveCheck[$i] & "Dcim" & $aFolderList[$i2], @DesktopDir & "Backup " & _Date_Time_GetLocalTime(), 9)
   Next
   MsgBox(4096, "Drive Test" & $i, "Removable Drive " & StringUpper($aDriveCheck[$i] & "") & " Dcim Exist") ; <<<<<<<<<<<<This works from here
        Else
            MsgBox(4096, "Drive Test" & $i, "Removable Drive " & StringUpper($aDriveCheck[$i] & "") & " No Files Found")
        EndIf
    Next

ill keep working at it back later

Ps yes DirCopy will probably be better, thanks

I don't think you got the destination folder right. You are missing a backslash after desktop (I assume) and _Date_Time_GetLocalTime() returns a struct, so it does nothing here.

#include <Date.au3>
ConsoleWrite(@DesktopDir & "Backup " & _Date_Time_GetLocalTime() & @LF)

Source path is also confused. You ask _FileListToArray() for folders under $aDriveCheck[$i] and then add "\Dcim\" in the FileCopy(), so you end up with $aDriveCheck[$i] & "\Dcim\Dcim"...

Fix is simple. Change to "$aFolderList = _FileListToArray($aDriveCheck[$i] & "\Dcim\, "*.*", 2)". I assumes you know what a backslash is and how it works. You can find information on what _Date_Time_GetLocalTime() does and how to use it in helpfile.

Finally, remove that FileExist() and add some proper error checking for the _FileListToArray(). _FileListToArray() already checks if the file exist, no need to do it twice.

I made a few changes but still not working

And one other thought what if the DCIM folder is not in the same place all the time? will it still detect it?

#include <Array.au3>
#include <File.au3>
#include <Date.au3>
Global $FolderList, $i, $i2
Local $aDriveCheck = DriveGetDrive("REMOVABLE")
If @error Then
MsgBox(4096, "Drive Error", "No Drives Available." & @CRLF & @CRLF & _
   "Please Insert Drive")
Else
For $i = 1 To $aDriveCheck[0]
  _ArrayDisplay($aDriveCheck, "DriveList") ; <<<<works to here
  $aFolderList = _FileListToArray($aDriveCheck[$i] & "Dcim", "*.*", 2)
  _ArrayDisplay($aFolderList, "FolderList")
  DirCopy($aFolderList, @DesktopDir & "Test Backup " & _NowDate(), 0)
  MsgBox(4096, "Drive Test " & $i, "Removable Drive " & StringUpper($aDriveCheck[$i] & "") & " Dcim Exist") ; works from here but thats just because its working down the list
Next
EndIf

DirCopy($aFolderList, @DesktopDir & "Test Backup " & _NowDate(), 0)

$aFolderlist is an array. you specify no index to use.
