copied!<p>Hi I am trying to get the number of files copied value from a logfile produce by a RoboCopy method within my application. The logfile is always in this format:</p> <hr> <h2> ROBOCOPY :: Robust File Copy for Windows :: Version XP010</h2> <p>Started : Thu Oct 10 10:08:51 2013</p> <p>Source : \ad\nas\Dev_Code\ITA\Stats\11.6.4.15\CFI\Build\ Dest : C:\inetpub\CFI\</p> <pre><code>Files : *.* </code></pre> <p>Options : <em>.</em> /FFT /NFL /TEE /S /E /COPY:DAT /Z /IS /R:5 /W:5 </p> <hr> <pre><code> 1 \\ad\nas\Dev_Code\ITA\Stats\11.6.4.15\CFI\Build\ </code></pre> <hr> <pre><code> Total Copied Skipped Mismatch FAILED Extras Dirs : 1 0 1 0 0 0 **Files : 1** 1 0 0 0 0 Bytes : 1.62 m 1.62 m 0 0 0 0 Times : 0:00:03 0:00:02 0:00:00 0:00:00 Speed : 607364 Bytes/sec.
