Thread: movefile() problem

cFileName only contains the file name. You need to create an absolute path:

Code:

         string oldpath = "C:\\specfilesin\\" + string(FindData.cFileName);
         string newpath = "c:\\specfilesout\\" + ext.substr(1,3) + "\\" + curfilename;
        
         if (!MoveFile(oldpath.c_str(), newpath.c_str()))
         {
             cout << "Failed with error: " << GetLastError() << endl;
             cout << "See Win32 Error Code list." << endl;
         }
