in thread File Copy

this would just be a vanilla copy of the file. I Tried the system call, but i counldn't get the syntax correct. I was looking for something along the lines of: system "copy $FileName \\somecomputer\folder\there\" how off am I on the syntax? Thanks for the help.

    If I remember correctly, the system function is of the form:
    system($command,$arg1,$arg2,...,$argN)
    So you might have better luck if you split up the command from the arguments. It's worth a try.
