I need help with a batch file. I want to use the batch file to backup three
areas from my XP computer (Comp-01) to another Win98 computer (Comp-3) using
an xcopy line for each area. Below is a sample of the code with the first
two lines working properly. The third line does not work and I think it
because of the folder \{FF87690B-8D29-43DE-897D-E0EF4569E810}. I don't know
how or if the folder can be setup to be recognized in the batch file.



Backup.BAT

xcopy C:\Docume~1\Mike\MyDocu~1\*.* \\Comp-03\C\BU1Mike /s /i /y

xcopy C:\Data\SKW2\USERDATA\*.sdb \\Comp-03\C\BU2Mike /s /i /y

xcopy C:\
Docume~1\Mike\LocalS~1\Applic~
1\Identi~1\{FF87690B-8D29-43DE-897D- E0EF4569E810}\Micros~1\Outloo~
1\*.*
\\Comp -03\C\BU3Mike /s /i /y



Any help would be appreciated.

The problem is that the folder {FF87690B-8D29-43DE-897D-E0EF4569E810}does
not follow the same format as the other folders (short folder names).
Simply change that folder name to {FF876~1 so the line should read:

xcopy
C:\Docume~1\Mike\LocalS~1\Appl
ic~1\Identi~1\{FF876~1\Micros~
1\Outloo~1\*.*
\\Comp-03\C\BU3Mike /s /i /y

I thought of that too, but...what if there are identical characters
after the first six? There may well be...
