I need to syncronize a couple of files between a desktop
and a laptop. Both computers will be on our corporate
network in order to transfer the files from the desktop to
the laptop. I would like this to be as easy as clicking an
icon for the user.
I used to make a batch file and use a simple "copy"
command. Is this still feasible and/or adviseable?

Thank You,
 
Batch file using ROBOCOPY (Windows Resource Kit) would be the best and
most bandwidth efficient means (it updates only files that are
changed).

See the ROBOCOPY FAQ:
