Hi - hope someone can help
I need to copy a file to a web folder every day and want to automate the task by using a scheduler to run a batch file. Is it possible to do and what commands do I need to use?

Why don't you try Karen's Power Tools <big>Replicator</big> instead of a batch file? It's <img src=/S/free.gif border=0 alt=free width=30 height=15>.....
Where is the web folder?
On a local or networked drive? On the internet?
A quick search in the Lounge for
<code>batch copy schedule</code>
should bring up a few examples, such as this thread beginning with <post#=305,537>post 305,537</post: >.
The web folder is on a company intranet site. I use http to access the folder.
Can you access the folder through a normal Windows Explorer session, or do you need to use something like an FTP client to upload?
If the former, you could probably use the batch/copy method in conjunction with a scheduler.
If the latter, you may find something useful here.
I can set up a connection under "My Network Places" in Windows Explorer but cannot map a drive to it. I am not sure about the ftp - will find that out.
