Good afternoon guys.

I am currently doing my dissertation and a few other pieces of work which I am completeing on my laptop (Win7 if this makes a difference?), however I need to be able to take the most up to date versions of everything into uni everyday.

Currently im just saving the few file on my memory stick each time however I would like to look into the possibility of autorun/batch to do this for me. I do not have any knowledge of how to construct these files though!

Ideally, what I would like to do is plug the USB stick into my computer and using an autorun (or just a link to .bat on the desktop?!) copy certain folders on my laptop into a directory on my memory stick.

Would any of you guys be able to help me with this at all? I would be hugely grateful!

Thanks, Rob.
 
Just use a collection of copy or xcopy commands in a batch file.

E.g.

CopyUniWork.bat

copy C:\*.doc E:\ - Copies all doc files to E:

Run a command prompt and type

copy /? |more

or

xcopy /? |more

To get an idea of what you can do.
