    I'm trying to make my script read a text file which has numbers on each row, then it should compare the text file with some file names that are in a folder, finally its copies the file names it compare with the text file to a another folder.
    I'm still learning how to script, so I hope someone out there can help.

    Thanks

    Code:
    Const ForReading = 1
    Set objFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
    Set objTextFile = objFSO.OpenTextFile _
        ("c:\mytest1\test.txt", ForReading)
    Do Until objTextFile.AtEndOfStream
        strNextLine = objTextFile.Readline
        arrServiceList = Split(strNextLine , ",")
        Wscript.Echo "Server name: " & arrServiceList(0)
        For i = 1 to Ubound(arrServiceList)
            Wscript.Echo "Service: " & arrServiceList(i)
        Next
        Set objFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
    
    If arrServiceList("C:\test1\*.pdf") Then
        objFSO.CopyFile "C:\test1\*.pdf,  "C:\test2\"
    Else
        Wscript.Echo "The file does not exist."
    End If
    Loop
