FileCopy
Copies a file.
Syntax: FileCopy source, destination
- source
- required String expression that specifies the name of the file to be copied. The source may include directory or folder, and drive.
- destination
- required String expression that specifies the target file name. The destination may include directory or folder, and drive.
FileCopy raises run-time error 55 (File already open) when source is a file that is currently open for Append. A file that is open for Input is copied without an error, and so is a file that is closed.
Example
This example uses the FileCopy statement to copy one file to another. For the purposes of this example, assume that the file contains some data.
Dim SourceFile, DestinationFile
SourceFile = "SRCFILE" ' Define source file name.
DestinationFile = "DESTFILE" ' Define target file name.
FileCopy SourceFile, DestinationFile ' Copy source to target.
