RoboTask forum

Hi,
I have 10 folders.
One task is watching by Filemonitor all these folders. I take a copy when a new files arrives to a archive.
I have also one task in each folder with Filemonitor. Here I do diffrent things with my files. And last I delete the file.
I will always run the first task(archive) before the other tasks.
Is there a solution?
Regards

I've understood you so:
When new file was arrived, you put a copy into archive.
Next you process some operations with this file and delete it.

File monitor can save list of new files. You can process these files within task by using text loop.
I'm sorry, I haven't understood your question. Do you want an example?

Yes, a example perhaps helps me.

See an example below. This task monitores new files in folder c:\incoming. When new files are appeared, file monitor saves list of new files into file c:\new_files.txt and launches the task.

Save text of the task into file and use menu Task | Import to import into RoboTask. Don't forget to enable the task after importing.
