    CopyFile API function

    CopyFile function fail if I use True for the
    last parameter. The file that I try to overwrite
    is a .xls file and is not write protected.

    CopyFile(sSourcePath, sDestination, false)



    Is there a beter way to copy a file?
    Is there any VB functions?
    thks!
    Alex!

    As I understand FileCopy is going to generate an
    error if it is unsuccessful?
    Thnks!
