Input Parameters

FSSourceName	Specifies the source file or source folder for DIAdem file and folder commands. String variable Note  If you do not specify a path, DIAdem searches for the file or the folder in the NAVIGATOR user and library path. Note  In many commands, you can use the wildcard * for any number of characters, and the wildcard ? for one character.
FSTargetName	Specifies target folders or target files for DIAdem file and folder commands. String variable Note  If you use the FSTargetName variable in the DataFileCopy command, you only can assign one path to the variable. If you use the FSTargetName variable in the DataFileRename command, you only can assign one filename without an extension to the variable. Note  In many commands, you can use the wildcard * for any number of characters, and the wildcard ? for one character.
[FSProgressBar]	Specifies whether the progress bar, which the operating system displays during long operations, is visible. If you assign the value TRUE to the FSProgressBar variable, DIAdem does not display the progress bar. The default value for the FSProgressBar variable is FALSE. Boolean variable

Note  DIAdem renames the header file and the associated binary files and automatically adjusts the references to the binary files in the header file.

Note  DIAdem only renames files and the associated header files, regardless of the filename extension you specify for the FSSourceName variable.

Note  Use the FileRename command to rename any file types.

Note  The page Loading Bulk Data - General contains important information on the extended loading behavior of TDM and TDMS files.
