Hello,
On my latest project, I want to give the user the option of installing the pub to the hard drive or run from CD. This pub has many subfolders and those sub folders have about 4 subfolders each. Upon install, I would like the exact tree structure that's on the CD to be duplicated on the hard drive.

I know I could just create a setup file that includes all the files and put that on the CD along with the program content. But I'd like to avoid that, if possible.

I also know that I could implement the Copy File action, using the *.* wildcard so that all the files in one folder would be copied to the destination folder on the hard drive. However, as many folders and subfolders that I have, that would require an awful lot of actions.

Is there a way to have the copy file action copy all files and folders under the root directory to the same tree structure on the hard drive with one action?

Thanks,
Mike

Another question:

I've counted 24 subfolders that I would need to copy to/from. Would that be too much of a workload for Opus to install using the Copy File actions?
Thanks,
Mike
