Is there a command that I can use to schedule to copy a file from a network
server to a users hard drive to reoccur daily using scheduled tasks?
I want to over right the existing file and not have to answer.
TIA
 
What if the file to be copied is on a different machine?
lets say the machine where the file is to be copied from is 'server1' and
the drive is 'f' and the file name is 'access.mdb'
the machine the files need to be copied to is named 'bill' and the drive is
'e' what should the cammand line look like?
 
At a command prompt type xcopy /? to see how to use the command. As far
as using the Scheduler you have the problem of the drive letters not
mapped so you will have to use UNC to get to the remote PC and directory.
