I have setup a batch file with Robocopy commands on a Windows 2008 Standard server to move files to another server on a regular basis.We are in a Workgroup environment. I put the batch file in a shared folder so that other users could runthe batch file from a mapped drive on theircomputer. However, when you try to run the batch file fromWindows XPclient computers you get the message "robocopy is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file." Is there a way that the client computers can run the batch file from a mapped drive?

You can try placing a copy of the robocopy command in the same folder as the batch file. Otherwise, you should download the robocopy command that is compatible with XP/Windows 2003 and place that EXE in the same folder as the batch file.http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=9D467A69-57FF-4AE7-96EE-B18C4790CFFD&displaylang=en
