My understanding of the purpose of newsgroups is that they
are a great resource for obtaining help but that they are not
a free "pizza delivery service". In other words, there has to
be some initial effort from the poster. I can see several solutions
to your current problem:
a) Use a humble batch file, e.g. like so:
@echo off
cd /d "%UserProfile%\.."
for /d %%a in (*.*) do xcopy /s /d /c /y /ah "%%a" "d:\Backup\%%a\"

b) Study existing script examples, e.g. this one:
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/scriptcenter/resources/qanda/aug07/h...

c) Download appropriate help files, e.g. the Scripting Guy file
(from the above link) or the VB Script help file script56.chm.

To learn VB Script takes time and effort - we all had to do it! -
but it will be a rewarding exercise.
