XCOPY
This may come as a very stupid question but can anyone come up with a
good description of the command xcopy /Z. I cannot find very much documentation on the /Z option as it seems to have been added to Windows 2000 and up. The only description I have found is what the help for xcopy states; "Copies networked files in restartable mode." Can anyone point me to a more thorough explanation of this? Sean |

Hi Sean,
Snip from: http://www.microsoft.com/resources/d...-us/xcopy.mspx Using /z If you lose your connection during the copy phase (for example, if the server going offline severs the connection), it resumes after you reestablish the connection. /z also displays the percentage of the copy operation completed for each file. -- Regards, Bert Kinney MS-MVP Shell/User http://dts-l.org/ Sean wrote: This may come as a very stupid question but can anyone come up with a good description of the command xcopy /Z.

That did it for me. The scary part is I skimmed that document earlier
and just missed it. Thanks Bert! "Bert Kinney" wrote in message ...
