I have been fighting this for 2 days. I get failure message for the following code, even though source and destination file names are correct:

procedure TMainForm.FormDropFiles(Sender: TObject; //===
const FileNames: array of String);
var
FileName, DIPPRID, DestFile : String;
begin
for FileName in FileNames do begin
DIPPRID := ExtractFileName(FileName);
DIPPRID := Copy(ExtractFileName(FileName), 1, Pos(' ', DIPPRID));
CreateDir (Settings.ProgramDirectory + 'Projects\' + DIPPRID);
DestFile := Settings.ProgramDirectory + 'Projects\' + DIPPRID + '\' ; //+ ExtractFileName(FileName);
if CopyFile(FileName, DestFile, [], False) then
ShowMessage('Success')
else
ShowMessage('Failure');

// UnZip.BaseDirectory := Settings.ProgramDirectory + 'Projects\' + DIPPRID;
// UnZip.FileName := FileName;
// UnZip.ExtractFiles('*');
end;
end;

Sir
my suggestion is

procedure TMainForm.FormDropFiles(Sender: TObject; //===
const FileNames: array of String);
var
FileName, DIPPRID, DestFile : String;
i:integer; 
begin

For i:=Low(FileNames) to High(FileNames) do
begin
 FileName := FileNames[i];

 DIPPRID := ExtractFileName(FileName);
 DIPPRID := Copy(ExtractFileName(FileName), 1, Pos(' ', DIPPRID));
 CreateDir (Settings.ProgramDirectory + 'Projects\' + DIPPRID);
 DestFile := Settings.ProgramDirectory + 'Projects\' + DIPPRID + '\' ; //+ ExtractFileName(FileName);
 if CopyFile(FileName, DestFile, [], False) then
 ShowMessage('Success')
 else
 ShowMessage('Failure');

// UnZip.BaseDirectory := Settings.ProgramDirectory + 'Projects\' + DIPPRID;
// UnZip.FileName := FileName;
// UnZip.ExtractFiles('*');
end;
end;

Dennis Jones Topic Author Visitor	Still Failure. Also changed to DestFile := Settings.ProgramDirectory + 'Projects\' + DIPPRID + '\' + ExtractFileName(FileName);
