BAT: Can someone please add a simple file present check before the delete file line?

[burgemaster]

We have a script (below) that copies all the files from our Flip Video Cameras to a network share and then deletes the files from the camera.....

 

BUT if there is a problem copying the files (i.e quota) then it still carries on and deletes the files.

 

Could someone please suggest an ammendment to check that the files are copied before it deletes?

 

Thanks in advance!

You could check XCopy's errorlevel and then skip the delete part of your script if it doesn't equal zero.

 

IF %ERRORLEVEL% NEQ 0 GOTO abort

 

[b]XCopy Error Levels[/b]
0 success
1 no files found to copy
2 aborted by ^C
4 initialization error (not enough memory or disk space, invalid drive, or syntax error)
5 disk write error
