hello gurus, looking for some help with this in access.

basically, this is trying to copy all files with a certain date string in the filename to 2 separate destinations.

any insight is appreciated!

Code:
Function RelocateFiles(InputDate As String, strSourcePath As String, strDest1 As String, strDest2 As String)
    Dim FSO As Object
    Dim FLDR As Object
    Dim F As Object

    Set FSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
    Set FLDR = FSO.GetFolder(strSourcePath)
   
    
        For Each f In FLDR.files
                    
            If f Like "*" & InputDate & "*" Then
            
                fso.copyfile strSourcePath, strDest1
                
                fso.copyfile strSourcePath, strDest2
            
            End If
            
        Next f
End Function

Select range and press Ctrl+Shift+3 to format cells as date. (Shift 3 is the # sign which sort of looks like a small calendar).
