- This .ZIP file contains two utilities for use with Microsofts
- Visual Basic. These utilities are called VBCOPY.EXE and VBDEL.EXE.
- They are used to copy or delete Visual Basic projects.
-
- Visual Basic stores information about the project in the .MAK
- file. VBCOPY and VBDEL read the .MAK file and determine which
- forms and/or other files belong to the project. VBCOPY will
- copy the .MAK file and the other files for the project to
- another directory. VBDEL will DELETE the .MAK file and ALL the
- other files for the project.
-
- These utilities will tell you if it doesn't think the .MAK
- file is a Visual Basic .MAK file. The error messages out of
- these utilities are simple. Most of the time any error message
- indicates that the .MAK file or path is incorrect or that the
- destination path is incorrect. VBDEL will prompt you before it
- deletes any project.
-
-
- The format for the utilities are:
-
- VBCOPY <source .MAK file> <destination path>
-
- source .MAK file can contain a path
- and you can also specify *.MAK or
- *.* (which defaults to *.MAK)
-
- destination path is where you want the
- .MAK file and the other files to go. If
- you don't specify the destination it will
- copy them to the current directory
-
- VBDEL <.MAK file to delete>
-
- This will delete the .MAK file and ALL releated
- files found in the .MAK file. You can specify a
- path for this also.
-
-
- I have used these utilities many times without any problems.
- I determined the format of the .MAK file on my own so I
- cannot guarantee that it will always find the correct forms
- even though is has so far.
-
- Please report any bugs found with this utilities to me so
- I can fix them and upload a new copy. Thank You.
