Hi,

I need to do some file copying before I logout from the domain or shut down
my XP computer.

Is this possible, from where do I call it...?

Thanks for info on this issue

regards

gene
 
Make a batch file with the copy commands, then end it with the "shutdown"
command. Type "shutdown /?" for the syntax while at a Command Prompt.

Then, just click on the shortcut to copy the files and shutdown the system.

For example:

Type this in Notepad:

copy c:\*.* d:\*.*
shutdown.exe

Then save it as a text file with the extension .bat on your Desktop.

You can use Group Policy to apply logoff and/or shutdown scripts:

I know, however this is just for one particular workstation. Can I still
use GP or does it exist a similar elegant way locally?

I'd like to avoid the 'nonstandard' shutoff suggested in the other post.

thanks for comments

Gene:

Yes, you can use it on a local computer.
