Thank you all very much. Meanwhile I have found exactly what I was looking for, a slim program very good for my purposes. Done by Karen http://www.karenware...ols/ptreplicator.asp
I like the program, it is free and easy to use, uncomplicated, does what one expects not less, not more. 

I wonder if it would be seen as presumptuous if I write a little one paragraph end-user "review" for her program? I am new here.

And I wonder as well, whether some programmers could maybe have some reservations against the concept of the site, especially if the coders are very restrictive concerning freeware projects or so?
So I do not know, yet would like to say thanks to Karen that way.

Thank you, Gerome, yet this is still too fancy code for me. I would need a very easy tool, really for non-programmers. Something quite ready-to-use. But my best wishes (btw) for your FBS- language! 

Hi Skrommel - is there something like a ready made programm which has this code included? I am talking about something like Drag King, e.g. This programm came to my computer, I opened it and it just did what I wanted, I did not have to make an exe for myself or so. Maybe my suggestion is just beyond the size of a "snack", I don't know.

Thank you jgpaiva, I have checked the site. It seems, that it is in fact a backup tool which I am looking for.

Gerome! You really made my day :-) Thank you very much for the code. The only problem is, that I do not know, what to do with it, since a little html and css and such are my only code-skills. Could you tell me, where I can put the code into? Only if it is not too time-consuming for you.

Post New Requests Here / IDEA: Some programm which is able to recognize newer versions when copying

Hello everybody,

I have a rather hard time to save my documents on the other hard drive, an external disc. I have to manually find the folders which hold my new works (from original drive, let's say "C")  in Explorer and then copy them, because otherwise the system would just copy from the scratch. It would copy everything, if I would just highlight for copying the main folder and that would last hours, because they are big ones. Good would be to tell the system: copy "C:/" to e.g. "D:/" and then the sys would quickly find out what has changed and only copy the new files.

I have an FTP programm for instance, which absolutely notices the date/time of the file-version and asks me, whether I want to copy the already uploaded files. ("Newer version exists in the destination folder - do you want to copy it?") When I click "no to all" the programm just updates the files which have been changed since the last copy-process. Is that not wonderful?

Regrettably my system does not do this. Maybe someone knows whether there is a device already available for free? I have Windows XP installed on the C and plain folders on the D (no XP there).

Thank you for warming up your grey cells for me.

There was a mess - so again my wishes, what I wanted to say once:

Congratulation DC - I am still on my way to check it out, but what I've seen so far seems to rock!

Just a question - can one delete one's own post? I doubled by accident. ...
