Solve : Evil batch?

Answer»

I have a batch that I made so when I exit my money that in case I FORGOT to back-up to a floppy, which save me a good many to put a copy of it on there.  When I run it however it comes up saving that there isnt enough room on the disk.  If I do it in the program there isnt any issues but its a pain to go back an put in all the REQUIRED info.Not enough room on the floppy?LOL Hypocrite.

Show us the code.Its wierd, copy C:\doncuments and settings\robert\my documents\my money.mnn  A:\ /y /s /v

I have created a shortcut on the desktop so it looks better and STUFF not sure if it matters, not near the machine but sure its something like that.That's the batch file?In general, I have found that, when the error issued is "Insufficient disk space" or something similar, it is a good idea to check the free space on the target drive.there is nothing wrong with the floppies, I tried another and the same thing happened.This might even be a semi-intelligent question:  in what file system are the floppies formatted?I asssume FAT but I could be wrong.That makes the most sense, but I can't think of anything else...would it say if its not?  I dont know.  Strange Quote from: BC_Programmer on May 26, 2009, 11:55:28 AM

I never said there might be something wrong with the floppies.Maybe whatever you're trying to copy is too BIG for the floppy?woah, slow down there Carbon- He's supposed to FIGURE that out himself!  I didn't want this topic to carry on for another 5 pages.
