Thread: Need help with copying of Adobe Acrobat .pdf Files!

file functions tend to be operating system specific. Maybe you could enlighten us as to the operating system you are using.

You could just use system calls for it all.. it's a little nasty but if you're the only one using it (ie. os doesn't matter) and speed of the program is not an issue, i'd go for that option.

You know what i mean, right?

Code:

system("whatever you'd type at the dos prompt");

// eg.

system("copy d:\file.ext c:\file.ext");
system("rename c:\file.ext c:\newname.ext");

Is that what you are after?

Something like -

Code:

#include <windows.h>


int main()
{
	BOOL bWorked;

	//copy from cd
	bWorked = CopyFile("D:\\your.pdf","C:\\your.pdf",FALSE);

	//change name leaving original as it is
	if(bWorked)
		bWorked = CopyFile("D:\\newname.pdf","D:\\your.pdf",FALSE);

	if(bWorked)
		MessageBox(0,"Sucess!!","Outcome",0);
	else
		MessageBox(0,"Failed!!","Outcome",0);

	return 0;

}

(hmm... maybe i should have thought about my last post for longer... why was i even copying and then renaming?? geeeeez i think i'm getting tired .. )
