Compare & Copy Paste file to folder

Dear all,

 

I'm trying to copy and paste a file to a folder with the same name. My idea is, I tried to make a comparison between the file name and the folder name and if the same it will be copied to the folder according to the name. I tried to make code for this idea but it didn't work.

 

I'm attaching pictures and files for your reference :

Paste into this folder by name

 You need to provide a full filepath also for the destination of your copy operation! (It does not allow to copy a file as a folder…)

Use BuildPath also for the destination as yoou do for the source of the FileCopy function.
