Yes, very true. The transfer from the Mac server to the Windows server was unplanned and implemented quickly which is why there is no error capture. Just make it work was the task handed to me. Luckily, we have a rather strict workflow in place which prevents many common errors. The tFileListP was a...

Hello, I have files being dropped into a hot folder to be moved to an organized folder structure. Hundreds of files are being dropped here each day.
