I prefer this as it only copies files that have changed on the server. (faster)
Xcopy d:\opt\menus\*.* \\<servername>\ia\opt\menus /s /d 
/exclude:d:\opt\customer\data\excl.strings /y /i

The /s = subdirectories
The /d = newer date than today
The /y = don't prompt to overwrite(do it anyway)
The /i = list files being written
The /exclude:<txt_file_name> = file containing directories not to copy

The exclude is because I don't want to distribute a trends directory as I let 
the operators customize the look and feel of their trends on each station.
Ever wanted the Mesh stations to all have the same trends? I bet this could be 
modified so that when a station closes a trend it copies the trend directory to 
all the other stations....hmmmm...somthing to think about.
