Welcome to A1vbcode muddasirmunir.

You don't actually copy using the ClipBoard.

To copy a file you can use FileCopy or CopyFile functions.

'CopyFile source, destination[, overwrite]

CopyFile d:\my project\abc.txt, e:\backup\abc.txt, True

'or

'FileCopy source, destination

FileCopy d:\my project\abc.txt, e:\backup\abc.txt

With the CopyFile you can set if you want to overwrite the file.
