FileMove not moving files

[MSF]

My script will correctly create the test data and the test directories. However it does not move the files to the destination. I know I'm missing something really obvious here.

Here is my stand-alone example...

expandcollapse popup

$num_files = InputBox( "Number Of Files", "How Many Files?", "1", "", -1, 1 )
If @error = 1 Then
    Exit
EndIf

;---------------------------------
;           debug statement(s)
;---------------------------------
ConsoleWrite( "Variable - $num_files = " & $num_files & @CRLF ) 

DirCreate( @ScriptDir & "\Process\" ) ; Destination
DirCreate( @ScriptDir & "\Failed\" ) ; Source

Local $move_files_to_here = @ScriptDir & "\Process\"
Local $move_files_from_here = @ScriptDir & "\Failed\"

;---------------------------------
;           debug statement(s)
;---------------------------------
ConsoleWrite( "Variable - $move_files_to_here = " & $move_files_to_here & @CRLF )
ConsoleWrite( "Variable - $move_files_from_here = " & $move_files_from_here & @CRLF )

;---------------------------------
; Test Data - Example: Copy and 
; Paste the first three 
; file names into the "Cleanup" 
; inputbox prompt
;---------------------------------

FileOpen( $move_files_from_here & "Test1.txt", 2 )
FileClose( $move_files_from_here & "Test1.txt" )
FIleOpen( $move_files_from_here & "Test2.txt", 2 )
FileClose( $move_files_from_here & "Test2.txt" )
FileOpen( $move_files_from_here & "Test3.txt", 2 )
FIleClose( $move_files_from_here & "Test3.txt" )
FileOpen( $move_files_from_here & "Test4.txt", 2 )
FIleClose( $move_files_from_here & "Test4.txt" )
FileOpen( $move_files_from_here & "Test5.txt", 2 )
FIleClose( $move_files_from_here & "Test5.txt" )
FileOpen( $move_files_from_here & "Test6.txt", 2 )
FIleClose( $move_files_from_here & "Test6.txt" )

For $ctr = 0 To $num_files -1
   
    Local $file_name = InputBox( "Cleanup", "Enter File Name " & $ctr +1, "", "", -1, 1 )
    If @error = 1 Then
        Exit
    EndIf
    
    ;---------------------------------
    ;           debug statement(s)
    ;---------------------------------
    ConsoleWrite("Variable - $file_name = " & $file_name & @CRLF )  
        
    FileMove( $move_files_from_here  & $file_name, $move_files_to_here & $file_name, 9 )
    
    ;---------------------------------
    ;           debug statement(s)
    ;---------------------------------
    ConsoleWrite("Statement - Moved From: " & $move_files_from_here & $file_name & @CRLF )
    ConsoleWrite("Statement - Moved To: " & $move_files_to_here & $file_name & @CRLF )
    
Next

Any help would be much appreciated!

Thanks!

Now click on the FileOpen/FileClose function in your code area (yeap, it seems that this is new functionality for the autoit tags on forum ), and read how to use it.

The file is not closed, it can not be moved (why to open it in the first place - it's another mistery for me ).

Oh I get it... Thanks!

This:

$file = FileWrite($move_files_from_here & "Test1.txt", 0)
$file = FileWrite($move_files_from_here & "Test2.txt", 0)
$file = FileWrite($move_files_from_here & "Test3.txt", 0)
$file = FileWrite($move_files_from_here & "Test4.txt", 0)
$file = FileWrite($move_files_from_here & "Test5.txt", 0)
$file = FileWrite($move_files_from_here & "Test6.txt", 0)

W00T !

I really like the new help-linking !

Althought the fonts are too small in that help section ...
