Can anyone advise me please im using Windows XP Pro on C drive and need to be able to copy a file from one drive to another. This case original will have to be renamed and old file must be put on another Partiton which is on a Server Example K drive. Alternately There is another option using Windows 7 on a another computer instead of Windows XP Pro. So any answers appreciated.
yes had a look at that but just doing it for a test and not allowed to use Robocopy. Thanks for reply

For a 'test'? I don't understand.

A quick look on my old DOS book that I saved just in case that I have to make batch files says COPY is the right command.
Syntax:
COPY DRIVE:FILENAME DRIVE:FILENAME
COPY THISFILE THATFILE

If your permissions are setup to allow copying, you can use "UNC" paths to copy files across servers and drives.
Like Noah said, check out ROBOCOPY or the slightly less featured XCOPY.
