RBrown1375 0 Posted October 29, 2013 I looked through the Forums and didn't see if someone had a sample script for this problem. I have a folder E: Public, with a Task Scheduled to clear out the folder everyday at 07:00 and move the contents of the folder to E:TempPublicArchive. Is there a way to build a script that looks at the date or time and if the filefolder has not been in E:Public for at least 24 hours, it will leave the filefolder alone. Anything over that time, will be moved to the Archive folder. Thank you for any ideas you may have. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Melba23 3,361 Posted October 29, 2013 RBrown1375,Get an array of the folders using _FileListToArray, loop through them to get the time with FileGetTime (yes, it does work on folders) and use _DateDiff (compared to _NowCalc) to get the time difference. If it has been there too long then use FileMove/DirMove to move it. Give it a try and see how you do - you know where we are if you run into any difficulties.

DatMCEyeBall 131 Posted October 29, 2013 Try it out in a separate folder so you don't mess up anything else. "Just be fred, all we gotta do, just be fred." -Vocaliod"That is a Hadouken.
