It's ok then?
The original post said:
1, Every month I want to copy all files that are 1 month old (these
are all .PDF files) from folder A to folder B.
So, we determine the date from (1) month ago:
OldDate = DateAdd("m", -1, DateValue(Now()))
and move any file older than that date.
So, today (1/1/2011), no files from October would be moved,
but anything from September would be moved.
Have I misunderstood your requirement?
Did you mean files that are EXACTLY one month old?
If (DateDiff("d", OldDate, fDate) = 0) Then
or files that are LESS than 1 month old?
If (DateDiff("d", OldDate, fDate) > 0) Then
??

Subject: Re: $$Excel-Macros$$ Copy Files & then go back amd delete them
Here is how I have your script with all the mods you suggested. Its
still not copying the files from October 2011. Move command will not
work as it screws with permissions etc.
When I run the script the Window says Old Files: 10/1/2011 and then it
lists all the files created in September 2011.
Sub Archive_Files()
Dim fso, fldr, flc, f, fName, Fil, fDate
Dim OldDate
Dim Folder_From, Folder_To
Dim msg, msg2
'-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Folder_From = "P:\test\From\" 'Note: trailing "\" is significant!
Folder_To = "P:\test\to\"
'-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
' OldDate = DateAdd("m", -1, Now()) 'Determines date 1 month ago
OldDate = DateAdd("m", -1, DateValue(Now()))
' msg = "Old Files: "
msg = "Old Files: " & OldDate
msg2 = "Recent Files:"
'-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
If fso.folderexists(Folder_From) Then
'------------------------------------------------------
Set fldr = fso.getfolder(Folder_From)
Set flc = fldr.Files
For Each f In flc
fName = Folder_From & "\" & f.Name
Set Fil = fso.getfile(fName)
fDate = Fil.datelastmodified
If (DateDiff("d", OldDate, fDate) <= 1) Then
msg = msg & Chr(13) & Format(DateDiff("d", OldDate,
fDate), "0000") & " " & Format(fDate, "mm-dd-yyyy") & " " & f.Name
fso.copyfile fName, Folder_To
If (fso.fileexists(Folder_To & f.Name)) Then
fso.deletefile (fName)
End If
Else
msg2 = msg2 & Chr(13) & Format(DateDiff("d", OldDate,
fDate), "0000") & " " & Format(fDate, "mm-dd-yyyy") & " " & f.Name
End If
Next
MsgBox msg & Chr(13) & Chr(13) & msg2
End If
End Sub
