Move file (FAT only)

Hi,

If I have a huge backup file 'MyBackup.bkf' and want to move it from its
current folder to subfolder 'Monday' without actually physically
copying/erasing for hours. I.e. only edit its FAT entry. If not folder
'Monday' exists, it should be created.

Example
F:\Backup\MyBackup.bkf
to
F:\Backup\Monday\MyBackup.bkf

How would I do that in vbs?

The oFSO.move method will do this, same as the "move.exe" in a batch file.
