Question

Hi,

Part A - I want to search all .txt and .doc extensions using vbscript in all local drives and display the file names found in a text file with their modification dates in the file named updateFiles.txt

Also, prior to that a backup folder has been created with a backup of all .txt files in the system, when the list is being produced (part A), it should exclude this backup folder (autobackup) in C:

Part B - Then I need to use the subroutine compareFiles to check each file in updateFiles.txt to see whether the file needs to backup. If a file has been in autoBackup folder and its last modified date has not been changed, delete the file from updateFiles.txt

Lastly, i want to call backupFiles which copies all the files whose names are in updateFiles.txt to the autoBackup folder

Really appreciate all the help I can get. I can post the non-working scripts I have but they're completely off topic to what I need :(

Explanation / Answer

part A: search for "" *.txt "" u will get all txt files also """ *.doc """ for doc files
