Move file after import

[Mark]

Hi All,
Sorry if this is a basic question but I can't get this to work. I have
files randomly FTP'd to a directory and I need to import them. That I can do
but what I can't do is move them once they have been imported (Currently I
am using the Kill command). From the help file, I found the MoveFile method
but I don't get the "FileSystemObject". Syntax is: object.MoveFile source,
destination

object Required. Always the name of a FileSystemObject.
source Required. The path to the file or files to be moved. The source
argument string can contain wildcard characters in the last path component
only.
destination Required. The path where the file or files are to be moved. The
destination argument can't contain wildcard characters.

Could someone give an example of how to use this code if:
1)file to be moved is: Recxxxxx.txt
2)Directory of files to me moved = C:\Receive\
3) Directory to move files to is: C:\Receive\Log\

TIA

Mark

I have managed to do what I wanted using :
Dim strfile As String

ChDir ("C:\Receive\")
strfile = Dir("*.txt")
Do While Len(strfile) > 0
Name "C:\Receive\" & strfile As "C:\Receive\log\" & strfile
Debug.Print strfile
strfile = Dir
Loop
MsgBox "move complete"
