Backing up folders

Databases

To backup individuals files I have a program that uses the following code. What should the code be to backup entire folders?

If checkBox1.Value = True Then
'Backup of file.txt
f1 = getFolderItem("/home/backup/file.txt")
If f1.Exists Then
f1.Delete
Else
End If
f1 = getFolderItem("/home/Documents/file.txt")
f2 = getFolderItem("/home/backup/file.txt")
t")
f1.CopyFileTo f2

Else
End If

Recursively loop over folder content.
Or use system copy functions, e.g. Via plugin, shell or declares.

In MBS Plugins:
