The program should allow navigation similar to windows explorer - drilling down etc - to all files and folders on the local pc and any network pcs. It should cater for both mapped drives and networked pcs. File names and locations will then be added to a list/database. A timer/schedule function will be available to automatically copy the stored files to another location........................ The program will default to a set destination location but will allow this to be altered. Each file selected to copy will then default to this destination however that destination can be changed. For example we select files a1, b2, c3, d4, e5, and f6 for copying the default destination is f:\data the database record would look something like this. source file - g:\word\my documents\a1.doc destination - f:\data however we may change files d4, e5, and f6 so they go to s:\documents. When the designated time arrives the copy will be done. The Schedule run time program should be seperate and just be on or off. The main prog should be password and user protected. An option to zip/compress the files would be useful but quoted as extra Sounds complicated but it's basically an automated drag and drop with the source and destinations stored in a file Deliverables: Complete and fully-functional working program(s) in executable form as well as complete source code of all work done. Complete copyrights to all work purchased.

If you search the internet for an application called RohrBackup 2001 you will find my application. It does exactly what you are looking for and more, I will be willing to sell you my code for performing the file copy, and all automated processes such as performing automatic backups. I can also write this code from scratch if you like but I would then ask for an additional $150. If you are unable to download my backup application please let me know and I will send you the 5MB install. Thank you for you time. Alex Rohr           There are 9 private replies to/from Rohr2000.
