Looking for a script to make a copy of all the files listed in an Excel spreadsheet into a new folder for backup to a CD.
For example, the following data would be in a spreadsheet in column A rows 1-3
X:\04-06-4- greytrays\[login to view URL]
X:\04-06-2-2 greytrays\[login to view URL]
X:\04-02-02Grey3\[login to view URL]
A script would then locate the files on the computer hard drive and put a copy of them into a new folder, such as:
C:\backup\[login to view URL]
C:\backup\[login to view URL]
C:\backup\[login to view URL]
The new folder would then be backed up to a CD using XPs built in tools.
This script could read directly from the Excel spreadsheet, exported to a text file or the file paths and name data could be copied and pasted into the script.
There may be duplicate names and a dialog box should give the user of overwriting all, none, or some of the existing files.
There are approximately 10,000 to 20,000 files that need to be copied when this script is run.
