make sure that you have included a Reference (Project/References) to the Microsoft Scripting Runtime library.  That is where the FileSystemObject is defined.

Hi Arthur_Wood. I did Reference (Project/References) to the Microsoft Scripting Runtime library. There is no longer a compile error, but nothing was copied. Any idea what happened ?

 IPsec_Folder = Dir$(Directory_Box)

The  IPsec_Folder  always  result in blank.
