Setting properties with CopyFile

Is it possible to set the "Read Only" property of a file when you use the CopyFile function?

No, CopyFile doesn't let you change file attributes. I would just do:

Let>RP_WAIT=1
Run>cmd.exe /c attrib +r %filename%

Do you need to set the "Let>RP_WAIT=1" back to 0 afterwards?

Only if you don't want the script to wait for any subsequent Run Program commands to finish. RP_WAIT=1 makes the script wait for the Run command to complete (rather than just starting the command and continuing). So if you have any subsequent Run commands and you don't want that behaviour for them set RP_WAIT to zero.

Okay, thanks much for the reply
