App for copying files?

[~Dockie]

I need an app for copying files from DVD to HDD.

Something with a funtionality like:

Create a list of files to copy (and saves, then auto loads the list on next launch)
Copies the files from DVD to a specified Destination (say, the E: drive)
If it cant find a file, it'll prompt for another disk which contains the rest of the files.

Does anything like this exist?

Thanks

I'm backing up some files from my hdd. I only have 8.5GB and 4.7GB dvd's but some folders are 10GB+, so im looking for a program that will know every file (hence the list) over the two dvd's and automatically copy them to a drive i choose. when it's done with every file on dvd1 i was hoping it would prompt for the source of the next files (the next dvd) then proceed with the rest of the copying.

Much like how games on multiple disks used to prompt you when it was time for the next disk.

I'll give fastcopy a look, i cant see it as being a tough task to write something like this, but the only programmer i knew was linux based, i think this would need to be VB or something like that.

I'll be honest I don't actually see why you need this list you keep mentioning, tell it to copy everything off the disks - job done.

My thinking was, if it doesn't have a list of what to copy, how would it know there is a second disk to copy from?

I've found a couple of possiblities so far;
Winrar split-self extracting archive
installshield/inno could possibly be used
leaning vb (not gonna happen)
Batch script

Ill have a look at inno tomorrow, but i think its likely ill use winrar
