i based the following code on an example from copy files to other folder,
recorded march 31, 2006

Sub copyfolder_con()
Dim strfom, strto As String
Dim copyinfo As Object

strfrom = "w:\adhoc \ ipa profiles \ 2006 \ power play reports for ipas \
nnyppo power play reports\ *.xls"
MsgBox strfrom
strto = "w:\adhoc \ ipa profiles \ 2006 \ test area"
MsgBox strto
Set copyinfo = CreateObject("scripting.FileSystemObject")

copyinfo.copyfile strfrom, strto, False

End Sub


strfrom and strto have valid values.

it always abends at the copyinfo.copyfile statement.

yet this is exactly what is in help and what was on for march 31.

so why the abends?

thanks
