Copy/Move Directory
Does anyone know how I can move or copy a directory and all it's subdirectories/files from one location to another? I've found a bunch of references on how to copy/move files, but I can't seem to do entire folders.
How To Copy/move Files Of Certain Extensions From One Directory To Another?
I am almost finished a small project and all that is left is figuring out how to move/copy files of certain extensions (.mov, .jpeg, etc) from Directory1 to Directory2... I have both directories, and the file extensions prepped already, but just need to know how I go about 'grabbing' the appropriate files and moving/copying them to the new directory. I've looked at FileSystemObject and can find no clues as of yet.
Anyone have any ideas on this one?
Thanks

Rename And Move To Next Sheet
Does anyone know the proper way to rename the current sheet, and move to the next one for "VBscript"? I thought that this would work...but it isn't working properly. It renames the first sheet but doesn't go past the second.
Code:
intSheet = 1 'counter for sheets
objExcel.Sheets("Sheet" & intSheet).Select 'select current sheet
objExcel.Sheets("Sheet" & intSheet).Name = strComputer 'rename current sheet as the computername
intSheet = intSheet + 1 'counter to add next sheet
objExcel.Sheets("Sheet" & intSheet).Select 'go to the next sheet

Move And Rename File
This code will MOVE a file from the START to the END directory. I'd also like to rename the files by adding a Z.
Before:
test1.txt
test2.txt
After:
test1Z.txt
test2Z.txt
VB Code:
Private Sub cmdMove_Click() On Error GoTo MyError cmdMove.Enabled = False MoveFiles "C:AaronStart", "C:AaronEnd", "txt" cmdMove.Enabled = TrueMyError: If Err.Number = 58 Then MsgBox "File Exixts", vbOKOnly + vbExclamation cmdMove.Enabled = True End IfEnd Sub Private Sub MoveFiles(ByVal sSource As String, ByVal sDest As String, Optional ByVal sExt As String = "*") Dim sFile As String If Not Right$(sSource, 1) = "" Then sSource = sSource & "" If Not Right$(sDest, 1) = "" Then sDest = sDest & "" sFile = Dir(sSource & "*." & sExt) Do While Len(sFile) Name sSource & sFile As sDest & sFile sFile = Dir LoopEnd Sub
Move And Rename Sequentially ??Help??
I have tried everything to move files from one directory to another another and renaming them sequentially.
Example: view_1.jpg, View_2.jpg, View_2.jpg, etc...
I also need to check if the file already exists and if so rename the new file to the next number in the series. I have searched the net and tried several codes with no luck.
So far I can move the files rename with no sequential numbering and no check fo existing files.
Does anyone have any ideas?
Thanks

EASY! HELP! HELP! Move And Rename A File
I have an application that opens a text file that it recieves daily via ftp. It appends all of the data in the text file to a SQL7 db and then closes the db connection. I then need the program to move the file to a different folder and rename it with a new file name. What code can I use to handle the moving and renaming?
File Move, Rename In As Few Steps As Possible
Hi guys,
I have a situation where I may need to move files owned by a user.
For example, user "fred" may own the following files in the "FR" directory:-
FRFRED44-010103-1947.ZIP
FRFRED44-010303-1143.ZIP
I may need to rename the user fred, which means his files have to be renamed and moved.
Example. User "FRED44" gets renamed to "SMITH67".
Therefore the files need to be renamed
SMITH67-010103-1947.ZIP
SMITH67-010303-1143.ZIP
and the files *moved* to the "SM" directory.
From where I see it, I would need to do this:-
1. Find all files that match "FRED44"
2. Copy all files to the "SM" directory
3. Rename the files "FRED44*.ZIP to "SMITH67*.ZIP"
4. Delete all the FRED44 files in the FR directory.
Is there a file management API that can do the above - move and rename - in one operation?
(No special reason for one operation - just efficiency).
Would that File API support the use of * as the renaming wildcard? As we know good old DOS supports *.
"XCOPY FRED44*.ZIP C:SMSMITH67*.ZIP"
Comments/code most welcome.
Thanks,
Mark

Copy/Rename File
I'm looking for a way to rename file through MS Access.

Copy, Paste, And Rename
Hi Guys,
This is prob. a simple question but i have no idea how to do this :
How do i make a copy of "Sheet1" and change the name of the copied sheet to "Sheet2"
Thanks in advance
Haj :O)
Copy/rename Worksheet
How do I copy a sheet "Input Form" and rename it to "Input Form n", where 'n' is a sequential number? All the copied sheets must be in the same workbook (hence the sequential numbering).
My code is:
---------------
'Code to determine new name
Dim sh As Worksheet
n = 0
For Each sh In ActiveWorkbook.Sheets
shname = ActiveSheet.Name
If Left(shname, 10) = "Input Form" Then n = n + 1
Next sh
Sheets("Input Form").Copy Before:=Sheets("Input Form")
ActiveSheet.Name = newName 'the "newName" variable is defined elsewhere
-----------------
I am having two problems:
1. My value for 'n' is always counting the total number of worksheets in the workbook (which is currently 6), instead of the number of worksheets whose name starts with "Input Form" (which is 1).
2. The code finishes after the .Copy line. Any code I place after this line is never run.
Any thoughts? Thanks!
Database Copy And Rename
I would like to create a back-up of my database before I import stuff in it. Its located in a folder (ex. C:datadatabase.mdb) and i would like to put it a backup folder with the date as part of the new database name (ex. C:dataackupdatabase5.4.01.mdb).
Any idea?
Also, since im in here, Is there a way to automatically compact the Database in Access97 from VB?
Thanks!
Open, Rename, Copy
I need to know the following things:
1. How to let the user rename a file (eg. When they type "C: ext.txt" into a box and "C: ext2.txt" into another, it will rename the file.)
2. The same thing except instead of renaming, to copy.
3. Similar, but I want it so that the user can type "C: ext.txt" and it will open it in Notepad.
Thanks for your help

{Resolved }How Do I Rename A Directory Using A Visual Basic 6 Program?
I have written a program that renames files in the format "yyyy.mm.dd hhmmss filename.xxx" to "yyyy-mm-dd hhmmss filename.xxx", and now it turns out it is also supposed to rename directories as well. Does anyone know how I can accomplish this in Visual Basic 6? I did a thorough search of VBcity, and all I could find was a method for doing this in VB.NET. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Copy And Rename .jpg File Problem
Hi All, I'm in the process of writing a piece of VBA code in Access 2000 which will check for the existance of a .jpg file and then copy and rename the file to another directory if it exists. I have used the FileSystemObject in the past to move text files but I get a runtime error 13, type mismatch when trying to move an image file.
VB:
If LookForFile(conPicturePath, pstrFileName) = True Then
Set fs = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set f = fs.CopyFile(conPicturePath & pstrFileName, "C:DatabaseUpload" & pstrVIN & conFileExtension)
rsRenamePicture.Edit
rsRenamePicture!fldPictureUploaded = True
rsRenamePicture.Update
Set fs = Nothing
Set f = Nothing
'If not, then write TransID to errorlog.txt
Else
Call WriteErrorLog(pstrTransID)
End If
End VB:
Any thoughts.

COPY AND RENAME When I Press A Command Button
I want to know how can I have a commandbutton1, so when I press
it that COPIES a specific file (lets say TEST.MDB) from the application
path to a network computer (lets say to the USER5CBACKUPS folder
which of course it is shared and i have permissions to write etc.
Another similar situation is instead of copying using commandbutton1 but commandbutton2 to RENAME
the TEST.MDB mentioned above to lets say NEWTEST.MDB
I suppose this is kind SHELL command but I am not familiar with it because
I guess you run only a EXE file and not a total of DOS commands
Thanx a lot for your time

Move Directory
I have a couple of questions. I have a form that I need to MOVE files from one directory to another. I know how to move single files, the code I have now is:
Private Sub Command1_Click()
Dim FileSystemObject As Object
Set FileSystemObject = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
FileSystemObject.MoveFile "o:GISUnmappped259G.dwg", "d:NewWorkOrder259G.dwg"
End Sub
However I will not know the names of the files to be moved, so I need to move the contents of the directory to the other diretory. I can't copy because the o: directory has to be emptied.
Also I have the code in a Command button for this example but I need to know how to make this run "unseen"
Thanks for any help,

How To Move Type Lib To New Directory?
Hi,
I have this type library that I've been using with one project. Now I wish to move the library to a new folder and access it from a new project. But when I open Project|References the library is still listed in the list as being located in the old directory. I have tried the following:
1) unregistering the library -> get message saying it was never registered.
2) deleting the library from the old folder and then using Browse from References to locate it in the new directory.
What's worse is that I know its possible for I've done it before but can't remember the correct magic incantation.
Can anyone help me?
