Copying a file from CD to Users Hard drive

[Donnaghan]

I'm a newbie at this so have patience. I have designed a menu but what I need to do is search the users hard drive for the application just installed from the CD. When the directory is found I want to copy a file from the CD into the Directory where the application is installed.

You can always create a batch file that will copy the new file and have it run if the correct file is found. The easiest way to make a batch file is to follow the instructions below:
1. Open notepad
2. Type the commands to copy the file ie "Copy \myfile.xxx C:\destination_folder" without the quotes of course.
3. Save the notepad document
4. change the extension of the notepad file from .txt to .bat

Hope this helps
