# ASP Copy Method * * Complete File Object Reference Manual](#) * * * The Copy method can copy a specified file or folder from one location to another. **Note:** The result of applying the Copy method to a File or Folder object is identical to performing the operation using FileSystemObject.CopyFile or FileSystemObject.CopyFolder. In FileSystemObject.CopyFile or FileSystemObject.CopyFolder, you use the object reference to the file or folder and pass the file or folder as an argument to FileSystemObject.CopyFile or FileSystemObject.CopyFolder. However, it should be noted that the FileSystemObject.CopyFile or FileSystemObject.CopyFolder method can copy multiple files or folders. ### Syntax FileObject.Copy(destination[,overwrite]) FolderObject.Copy(destination[,overwrite]) | Parameter | Description | | --- | --- | | destination | Required.
