it dipends from your working dir.

[Fabry]

if you use filecopy('mary.jpg','c:\images\mary.jpg',8)

means filecopy(@workingdir&'\mary.jpg','c:\images\mary.jpg',8)

if you are running te script in the same directory of mary.jpg it works.

Instead filecopy('c:\my images\img\mary.jpg','c:\images\mary.jpg',8)

indipentent of your working dir (runnin script dir) it copies c:\my images\img\mary.jpg in c:\images\mary.jpg

Sorry for my english.

I don't really understand your question... you talk about copy the script itself and then show something with a jpg....

What exactly do you want to do ?

I try to copy a compiled script itself to another folder using the FileCopy function but should I key in the 'Full' destination address?

Can use a relative path from your working directory.

If DirCreate('mypictures')
    FileCopy(@ScriptFullPath, 'mypictures\')
EndIfoÝ÷ ÚÚ~ée¥«a¶¢W^­«­¢+Ù%¥É

½Áä¡MÉ¥ÁÑÕ±±AÑ °ÌäíèÀäÈíµåÁ¥ÑÕÉÌÀäÈìÌäì¤)¹%

You do not need to use the filename in the destination unless you want to rename the file.

Do I need to include the full directory destination if i'm copying the script ITSELF?

Thank you.

if you want to copy the script that you are using do what MHz said

If DirCreate('D:\mypictures')
    FileCopy(@ScriptFullPath, 'D:\mypictures\')
EndIf

@ScriptFullPath retrieves the full path of your script

i cant understand your question has been answered , please explain better exacly what you want, your script to copy itself or to copy another file..

Script ITSELF.

The fullpath to the script is @ScriptFullPath. So, use @ScriptFullPath as I have shown in post #7 and as Gif above has tried to reassure you of.

FileCopy(@ScriptFullPath , 'C:\directory\' , 8)

Using 8 as the flag parameter will create the directory. If you want file overwrite also, then use 9.

So by using the @ScriptFullPath function, I don't have to include the script's location but only the destination to be copied to?

NOTE: Using the FileCopy function to copy the script itself to another location.

yes, thats what we 've been telling you
