is there a way to monitor file copies?

[des67]

Does anyone know how to programmatically determine if a specified file has been copied to a new location?
And if so where the target location is?

Thanks.

I am not sure it will meet your needs but it is a start.

Good Luck

There is an API (CopyFileEx) which uses a callback function to allow you to follow the progress of the copying.
