Saving documents to two (2) drives

[Boats]

I need to know how to save a document to 'My documents' and also a Western
Digital External hard drive at the same time. Currently I am going back to My
Documents and sending them to the external hard drive. There has got to be a
better faster way to do this.
Any help will be most helpful. Thanks

Hi,

Copy the four lines below into notepad and save as backup.vbs. Change
NameofFolder to the correct name and create two backup folders according to
the example below. In the done = change NameofFolder as well.

Set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")

fso.CopyFolder "C:\NameofFolder\*.*", "C:\NameofFolder_backup"
fso.CopyFolder "C:\NameofFolder\*.*", "E:\NameofFolder_backup"

done = MsgBox("Done", vbOKonly, "Backup NameofFolder")

Second Copy® 2000 is the perfect backup product designed for Windows
9x/Me/NT4/2000/XP you have been looking for. It makes a backup of your data
files to another directory, disk or computer across the network.

It then monitors the source files and keeps the backup updated with new or
changed files. It runs in the background with no user interaction. So, once
it is setup you always have a backup of your data some where else.

Hi, Kelly. I love Second Copy (now at Version 7, and it works on
Vista and Windows 7, too). It's think it's the best shareware program
that I've ever used.
