Technical Notes Database TN822D.txt MOVING FILES ACROSS DIRECTORIES Category :Pascal Platform :All Product :Turbo Pascal 4.0+ Description: Q. How can I move a file from one directory to another from a Turbo Pascal program? A. If you are on a system equipped with a hard drive, you can simply use the RENAME procedure. Assign a file variable to the file name as it currently appears in the directory. Use the same file name when RENAME is called but replace the directory path specified with that of directory where the file is to be placed. This method will not work across drives. See the Copyfile example from the description of BLOCKREAD in the Turbo Pascal Reference Lookup Chapter in the Reference Manual. Reference: 7/16/98 4:35:36 PM
