Copy To...
(File Menu)


The Copy To command provides an easy way to copy a selection of files to the destination of your choice, even to or from zip files if you wish.

All of the files and folders highlighted in the file list will be copied to the destination folder or zip file you select in the dialog box that is presented.  If a folder is copied, then all of its contents, including subdirectories and their contents, will be copied to the destination directory and the directory structure will be preserved.

If the destination ends with the .ZIP extension, the files will be copied into a zip file of that name.  If the file does not exist it will be created.  If the destination is not a zip file or a folder and there are multiple source files or the source is a folder, a folder will be created and the source files copied into it.

If the copy operation would result in an existing file being overwritten, a dialog box will appear asking how to proceed.

  The search dialog makes it easy to collect files in various ways, such as the most recently changed, those with a particular set of file attributes, having certain contents or some combination of characteristics, so it is easy to make backups of recent modifications or place copies of certain types of files on some sort of removable disk or archive.
