LOAD Source File, then move it to another folder

[#1]

Hi,

My script loads data from Excel documents coming in at different times during the day.

Is there a simple way to move these files to another folder once loaded?

I want the source folder to contain new data only. While keeping the already loaded files in an "OLD" folder or similar.

Kind REgards,

Olle

you can use a dos command in your qvw :

EXECUTE robocopy.exe /SEC "\\<your path>" *.qvw /log:"\\>your path>\Logs\ApplicationCopy.txt" /fp

adjust the command according to your needs

EXECUTE cmd.exe /C robocopy C:\Users\xxxxx\Desktop\01.Raw_Data C:\Users\xxxxx\Desktop\01.Raw_Data\OLD *.xls /MOV
