Hi mark perhaps I have made an error some where
I have a folder in my user area called OUTBOX which I have included in the Doc = path
I then tried putting an OUTBOX in the copy to path but I still get the error. Can you explain the oSubfolder.Name function? Thanks John

oSubFolder.Name would be the enumeration of all sub folders within E:\Users.

Does this inbox directory already exist?

I hope you find this post helpful. Please let me know if it was.

Yes this directory exists Mark. I am still fiddling with the code to get it to put the copied doc into a folder called INBOX within the users home directory.
All the best John school tech.

I think the code is god at this point, I would focus on making sure the script has access to the source file. If you can, try putting a copy of the file in the same directory as the script and just give the file name (with extension) in the input box. You would not need a path then.

Hi Mark the basic code is great. I just wish I could figure a way to get it to place the copied document into a file folder in the target users my documents.
I copies it fine from my work area to their my documents but it willnot seem to place it into a folder in their user area.
Still its working better than I had expected. I will keep looking for that next step...
Thanks and all the best from John F

Ie; to have an input box (what file)(& path)
input box destination year ( and folder)

Take a look under the hood at Word macros. You can use VBA in there.

Seems that word or Excel would be rather difficult to work with for your need. I'd look more into using ASP code.
