Read all the files in a folder over and over again

[Nando88]

I tried adding the for loop, and I know this is something that happens only to a beginner, but wht's inside the for loop never executes, it only receives the parameters and it doesn't execute.

As I said before, the problem is that the files created have different names and I can't predict which name they will get. That's the reason why I'm seraching for every new file that's created in the directory, so that it then overwrites the old file

Remove the 1 from the For Loop and this should run exactly as you want it to run for whatever reason.

If you don't have control of writing the files into the folder then where are they coming from? Some labview program or an external source?

The files are coming from an external source.

You have a list of files and only the last one needs to be copied, so why are you copying all in a row? Seems way too much work.

Here's a quick draft. For safey, I would really define a pattern (e.g. *.dat or whatever).
