IDEA: Very Simple File Copier Windows

(1/4) > >>

scottchamings:
Hi,

Would love a very simplified file copier with 2 windows vertically arranged and just a left and right arrow.  Each of the two windows would show the contents of a folder specified on command line or via .ini. 

If a user clicked on a file or selected a group of files and then clicked on a arrow pointing to the other window, the file would be copied.  Also possibly an option to select a file and delete it. 

The idea would also be that the files cannot be launched from these two windows.

This would be very useful in a Citrix environment over a wan where you want a user to copy to and from a local drive to a server drive but not launch the files or browse around a PC or server.

Thanks

Scott

Any restrictions on what tools/libraries can be used to make this program?

I think something like this might already exist but I can't think of any right now.

scottchamings:
No real restrictions over than to aviod the need for resident runtimes I guess, a simple compiled exe with use of common dlls would be best...  Just because running on a Citrix Server (Presentation Server 3) on Windows 2003 Server OS.

I havent been able to find anything yet after a couple of months of trolling but happy for any ideas...

mouser:
There are a lot of really good file synchronizers that can do this and a lot more.. are you sure you don't want to use one of those?

scottchamings:
I thought of doing that and in fact I currently just use Microsofts command line robocopy, but I am hoping for a more selective and interactive method, but want to restrict which folders that can be source or destination and also restricting launching of files within the windows (which kills alot of filemanager type utils so far)
