Copy files based on file name and date created with VBS
Hi
I'm very new to VBS but slowly getting to grips with it.
I'm trying to copy file from one folder to another based on the file name and the date the file was created.
I need to copy any file in c:\folder_a to c:\folder_b which has the file extention of .cvs, which was created after a certain date,and has a file name which begins a certain string of characters.
An example of the file name is CMA910001_BA_20080604_1015 09.CSV
Only .CSV files that begin with CMA910001 created after a certain date need to be copied.
Could somebody please show me an example of this code or point me in the direction of a good web resource that will
thanks
