G'Day Everyone,
Greetings.
Can you help me with some pointers? I am new to scripting.
This script complains about Line 86 Char 5 Error: Bad file name or number Code: 800A0034.

'Description: VBS script to backup your pst-files.
'
'Comment: Before executing the vbs-file, set the amount of pst-files
' that you want to back up, the paths of the pst-files and
' the backup location (this can also be a network path).
' See the URL below for more configuration instructions and
' how to create a Scheduled Task for it.
