You should use For $folder = 1 to $Folder[0]...Next this way you don't try to copy a folder that doesn't exist.

since I cant figure this code out, I will just keep on asking until someone who wants to teach and see the lightbulb go off responds, why are you guys so into seeing my suffer.

[kylomas]

sbrady,

You are being taught, what is it that you do not understand? All pieces of the code have been presented.

We don't want to see you suffer, we want to see you put some efforts into solving the problem yourself.

We don't give you a solution here, we point you into the right direction but you have to walk the road yourself

[sbrady]

if this was GPS you guys would all say "turn left".........does that fully explain to me how to get to 123 Main St, Orlando Fl. NOPE. Do you understand my frustration.

[JLogan3o13]

sbrady, you have already come to the attention of the Moderators in your short time here. I would offer the suggestion that the petulant child routine is not going to help you any. We are offering help, but we will not spoon-feed to code.

[BrewManNH]

Have you even attempted to read the help file for the function names you've already been given? Have you attempted anything other than trying to get us to do your job for you? If I were your boss, and this is the type of work you produce, you'd be the first on the short list for attrition.

I will keep trying. I'll be sure to tell my boss, PC automation is not like Apple automation, and I'll have to drill down and click click click click until the cows come home and tell the scheduler to add a lot more time to my sessions, he knew this was coming when the decision was made to go PC. here is an example of someone giving help with code on an apple forum.

Worst example to make a point ever.

That guy is trying things himself and posting his code, you are just having a tantrum.

Had you started trying things earlier, you woul;d have completed this by now and a lot more.

[sbrady]

I hope the moderator looks at this thread..........I have been abused and assaulted verbally like never before on any forum simply for asking for help.

[BrewManNH]

BTW, no where in this thread did ANYONE suggest using clicking to get what you want done, so mentioning that in your rant just shows you aren't paying attention at all to what you're being told.

There's absolutely NO NEED to use mouse clicks or the Send command to do any of what you are looking to do, it's all done programmatically, and easily, with AutoIt. Just because things are done differently in Applescript, doesn't mean it can't be done easily on the Windows side of things.

You have not been abused, you have been the one trying to get us to do your job for you. I hope you point your boss to this thread, and maybe he'll tell you the same things we are. Man up, learn the language, and stop whining like a spoiled brat when you don't get everything handed to you on a silver platter.

If you can't learn this language, there's hundreds of others you could try and learn.

[water]

Abused? ... You? ... LOL!

Everyone who responded to this thread did his best to help you solve your problem. After you got some ideas, hints and even function names you didn't do your part: read the help file, try to understand and then start coding.

sbrady,

A Moderator is indeed looking at this thread - as I have been looking at all your threads since you arrived here.

You seem to have shown almost no initiative in trying to write your own code to solve your various problems. Several experienced forum members have told you how to do the various things you ask - but all we ever get back is "Applescript is so easy" (and I have already mentioned that in your aother thread). Now we can understand your frustration in having to change your scripting language - all of us have had to learn a new language at least once in our lives - but what we cannot understand is your constant demand for someone to write the code for you. This forum tends to help you with problems in code you have written - we do not write large chunks of code for you.

Just remember that AutoIt is provided free of charge for you, as is this forum, and all the members here are volunteers who give their own time to offer advice to others - and from your attitude so far I am frankly amazed that some are still trying to help you. So I suggest that you do one of two things: either start listening to the advice you have been given and start reading the Help file so that you can produce some code which we can help you debug/change so that it works as you want it to - or else go and look for another scripting language.

This is a free choice for you - we are not in any way forcing you to go, but I imagine you are unlikely to get much more help unless you change your attitude significantly. I hope you choose wisely.
