Diagnostics process - dos command

[RSAGS]

The following process won't work if I use "move" in the FileName. However, if I replace it with @"c:\winnt\syst em32\xcopy.exe ", then it works fine. Is there anything I missed. It is running on Windows 2000 server (not Advanced Server)

Process d
d = new Process()
d.EnableRaising Events = false
d.StartInfo.Fil eName = "move"
d.StartInfo.Arg uments = @"c:\*.jpg c:\image\"
d.Start()
d.Close()
d.Dispose();

Try setting UseShellExecute (?) to true.

Re: Diagnostics process - dos command

RSAGS,

I believe that move is something that is interpreted by the command
line, not an actual process. So, to get it to work, your executable would
have to be CMD.EXE and then pass "MOVE" as the first parameter.

Hope this helps.
