I also tried File /r "....\Source*." "\abc\Destination". Please let me know where am i going wrong. Also please let me know how to copy the folder on the ftp site

Copyfiles uses SHFileOperation internally and should work as long as you follow that api's restrictions, especially the part about full paths: "It cannot be overstated that your paths should always be full paths" and "Standard MS-DOS wildcard characters, such as "*", are permitted only in the file-name position. Using a wildcard character elsewhere in the string will lead to unpredictable results"
