I want to move a text file from one server to other server. At the same time, I want to keep a back of it in the server from which file is being moved. So I want this task to be automatic and should be run everyday.
So I want to write a batch file and schedule it to execute using Task scheduler.
Please help me to write a single batch file to perform both copy and move operations at the same time.

thanks in advance.

This can be achieved by typing copy /? in command prompt but here you go:

You can copy files with the command copy

copy SOURCEFILE.EXTENSION %cd%\DIRECTORY

%cd% if you do not know means current directory.

Does the achieve your problem?
