Hi can anyone tell me why this bit of code wont work?

local SellectedGif = {};
local tDest        = "";

tDest        = _SourceFolder.."AutoPlay\\WorkingFolder\\";
tDest        = tDest.."a.gif";

SellectedGif = Dialog.FileBrowse(true, "Locate the .Gif File", _DesktopFolder, "All Files (*.*)|*.*|", "", "gif", false, false);
if SellectedGif[1]~="" and SellectedGif[1]~=IDCANCEL then 
   SourceGif = SellectedGif[1];
   File.Copy(SourceGif, tDest, true, true, false, true, nil); 
   if File.DoesExist(tDest) then
      Label.SetVisible("gifOK", true); 
      Input.SetText("Input1",String.SplitPath(SourceGif).Filename..String.SplitPath(SourceGif).Extension);
      end
   end

its a simple copy function but i cant seem to get it to run

All its doing is getting the user to sellect a gif and then copy it to Autoplay\\WorkingFolder then check to see it it copied ok.As far as i can tell its down to the copy process. Ive put all sort of checks in and it seems to be building to paths to the files OK but nothing is getting copied.

Here are a couple minor edits. Do you know how far it is getting? If not, try running the debug console... it can be a big help.

local SellectedGif = {};
local tDest        = "";

tDest        = _SourceFolder.."\\AutoPlay\\WorkingFolder\\";
tDest        = tDest.."a.gif";

SellectedGif = Dialog.FileBrowse(true, "Locate the .Gif File", _DesktopFolder, "All Files (*.*)|*.*|", "", "gif", false, false);
if SellectedGif[1]~="" and SellectedGif[1]~="CANCEL" then 
   SourceGif = SellectedGif[1];
   File.Copy(SourceGif, tDest, true, true, false, true, nil); 
   if File.DoesExist(tDest) then
      Label.SetVisible("gifOK", true); 
      Input.SetText("Input1",String.SplitPath(SourceGif).Filename..String.SplitPath(SourceGif).Extension);
      end
   end
end

hey nice one . That was driving me crazy

[Roboblue]

change this

tDest        = _SourceFolder.."AutoPlay\\WorkingFolder\\";

to this

tDest        = _SourceFolder.."\\AutoPlay\\WorkingFolder\\";

(change is in red)
