file.moveTo( )
file.moveTo( )
The file.moveTo( ) method moves or renames the File object into the specified destinationFolder.
The destinationFolder must exist on disk, otherwise an error is generated.
By default, the file retains its name when moved. If you want to rename the moved file, pass the new full name in the newName parameter. The new name must comply with naming rules (e.g., it must not contain characters such as ":", "/", etc.), otherwise an error is returned.
Returned object
The method returns the moved File object.
$DocFolder:=Folder(fk documents folder)
$myFile:=$DocFolder.file("Current/Infos.txt")
$myFile.moveTo($DocFolder.folder("Archives");"Infos_old.txt")
