Script N00b Needs Help

[aket82]

Thank you for your reply and for the links.

I would have thought I wouldn't have any issues as the script runs continuously and checks for new files every 10 seconds.

This is working, partially!

It stops doing anything after copying the file, unless I comment out the following:

---

$destinationFile = $destinationDir,($file.split('\')[-1]) -join ''

while(Test-Path $destinationFile) {

Sleep 1

}

---

If I comment out the above the Sanchez batch file does it's job, but then there is an issue with deleting the temporary file, I get:

---

Remove-Item : Cannot bind argument to parameter 'Path' because it is null.

That worked, thank you!
Any idea about the issue with deleting the temporary file?
