View Full Version : xcopy in batch file

Hi,
Before I log off, I run a batch file which uses XCOPY to backup recently
changed info.
I would like to run this file automatically at logoff and believe that I can
do this with WSH.
How do I call XCOPY from vbs ?
TIA

Joskin,
You do not need to call this from VBS, if you have a working script just
use it as your logoff script.
Windows XP supports Start-up/Shutdown and Logon/Logoff scripts.
You can set your logoff script through the local policy editor.
