(Just checking: did you put the PLL into Forms' \bin directory?)

COPY_FILE accepts 4 parameters:

  • OldFileName - The location and name of the file to Copy
  • NewFileNme - The new location and name for the copy of the file
  • AllowOverWrite - TRUE or FALSE(Default) If FALSE, then if the NewFileName already exists then the move will fail. If TRUE the existing file will just be overwritten.
  • RaiseExceptions - TRUE or FALSE(Default) If set to true, then if the command is not successful (e.g the file does not exist) then the explicit exception NO_DATA_FOUND will be raised.
So, what happens if you include the fourth parameter (set to "true"), i.e.

Win_Api_utility.copy_File('D:\PRABHA\TEST.xls', 'D:\', true, true);
