synchronisation via batch commands

Thanks for your prompt help John. Have read the tech spec and it looks
perfect for what I need - the /purge switch is just what I was looking
for.

Thanks again,

Anthony :)

I have a batch file backup in place in the office which copies all
files from a shared directory to a separate PC - providing date stamp
is newer etc. However, if a user deletes a file from the source
directory a copy will still exist in the destination directory. Is
there a batch command I can run, say once a week, that will compare the
directory structures and delete any redundant files from the
destination directory. Examples would be really helpful.

Many thanks,

Anthony
