    batch file to copy file to another place

    I want to copy file to another place using copy command and save it with the name of system date. But the execution shows zero files copied. Please help me find the error.

    @echo off
    :: variables
    set hour=%time:~0,2%
    if "%hour:~0,1%"==" " set hour=0%time:~1,1%
    set name=%date:~10,4%_%date:~4,2%_%date:~7,2%_%hour%_%time:~3,2%
    set source=C:\abc.jpg
    set desitination=C:\%name%.jpg
    set backupcmd=copy /V /-Y

    echo Copying up downloaded file...
    %backupcmd% "%source%" "%destination%"

    echo Copying Complete!
    @pause

    I think that you might want to take a look at XCopy or RoboCopy which are pretty comprehensive solutions for nearly all file copy operations on Windows.
