Experts: how can I copy a.txt on drive D to drive Z once every minute, with the generated files named a1.txt, a2.txt, a3.txt ........ Can this be done with a batch file? How do I do it, thanks!!

dim fso

set fso=Createobject("scripting.FileSystemObject")

for num=1 to 10

  fso.Copyfile "d:\a.txt","z:\a"+Cstr(num)+".txt"

  wscript.sleep 3000

next

set fso=nothing

This copies once every 3 seconds.
Only copies 10 times.

Reply #2, are you sure your command doesn't need support from an external program?

No need. Just try it and you'll know, right??

Reply #2, you're really impressive. This section is asking about batch files.
Isn't what you posted ASP?

This is the "DOS Batch Files & Scripting Technology" section, any script can be discussed here.

That's a VBS script..

Can this be done with a simple *.bat batch file written in Notepad?

Yes, but can I ask what you want to do with it?

My IP storage often drops the connection, so I want to keep copying files into it continuously, to see whether there's any pattern to when it drops.
