advance Posted December 21, 2004 Share Posted December 21, 2004 I was working on a simple script to sync two directores with each other, this is what I had: $destination = InputBox("Where would you like to move the files to be copied to [what is the destiniation]?", "Destination.", "",) $source = InputBox("What is the source to be moved to destination", "Source.", "",) DirCreate ( $destination ) DirCopy ( "$source", "$destination" ) But when I run it, I get a folder called $destination on my desktop with nothing in it. What am I doing wrong? Thanks in advance, Matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
