I am trying to create a VBS script to copy certain subfolders and files from one source path to destination path. Here is the scenario:
- Source Path: C:\Test1\RegionA\Statements\
- Destination Path: C:\Test2\RegionA\Statements\
In the source path, there are 2 subfolders. Subfolders are …\Names\Years\
- I need to copy all files within “Year” subfolder where the year is 2014-2017. I do not need files prior to 2014.
- The name of the year folder is exactly as the year. i.e. 2014, 2015, 2016...
- There are no subfolders in the destination path. Therefore, subfolders will need to be created if it doesn’t exist.
I found this script online and modified the file paths. It stops the when copy the first file because it (looks like) is copying/pasting into the same file path (source path). Does anyone know what might be the issue or have a better script? Thanks
for your help!!

Sub CopyFiles(ByVal strPath As String, ByVal strTarget As String)
Dim FSO As Object
Dim FileInFromFolder As Object
Dim FolderInFromFolder As Object
Dim Fdate As Long
Dim intSubFolderStartPos As Long
Dim strFolderName As String
strPath = "C:\Test1\RegionA\Statements\"
strTarget = "C:\Test2\RegionA\Statements\"
Set FSO = CreateObject("scripting.filesystemobject")
'First loop through files
For Each FileInFromFolder In FSO.GetFolder(strPath).Files
Fdate = Int(FileInFromFolder.DateLastModified)
'If Fdate >= Date - 1 Then
FileInFromFolder.Copy strTarget
'end if
Next
'Next loop throug folders
For Each FolderInFromFolder In FSO.GetFolder(strPath).SubFolders
'intSubFolderStartPos = InStr(1, FolderInFromFolder.Path, strPath)
'If intSubFolderStartPos = 1 Then
strFolderName = Right(FolderInFromFolder.Path, Len(FolderInFromFolder.Path) - Len(strPath))
MkDir strTarget & "\" & strFolderName
CopyFiles FolderInFromFolder.Path & "\", strTarget & "\" & strFolderName & "\"
Next 'Folder
End Sub
