copying file help

[shinyrory]

Hey

If someone is trying to copy a file to a directory where there is a file with the same name is there a way to ask the end user for confirmation before over writing the original file? I want to use the File.Copy command instead of the File.Install command so i can use a customized dialog box. Thanx for your help

This help?

-- Checks to see if a particular file exists.
are_ya_there = File.DoesExist(_WindowsFolder.."\\targetfile.ini");

-- If the file does not exist, display a message notifying the user.
if are_ya_there == false then
    result = Dialog.Message("Notice", "The specified file does not exist.", MB_OK, MB_ICONINFORMATION, MB_DEFBUTTON1);
end
