Have a look at the COPY command in the Help The only thing you have to do is paying attention to the use of quotes in the command. If there are spaces in the filename the usage of quotes is needed You also can put the filespec in a variable. Please make sure that the drive + path is included as well as in the source and target filename. And also take care of the possible special characters in the filename like quotes
