View Full Version : Scripting a simple compare


01-Aug-2005, 03:04 PM
I need to monitor a robocopy job. I would like to see the comparison ran and a report created each morning before I get into work. Would like to launch Beyond Compare around 5 AM. Could not locate any examples in the forum. Does anyone have anything?

You can schedule the script using Windows Task Scheduler as described at: http://www.scootersoftware.com/support.php?c=kb_schedule

Here's an example script for generating a folder comparison report:

criteria timestamp size
load folder1 folder2
expand all
folder-report layout:side-by-side options:display-mismatches output-to:report.txt
