  Hi All,
       I putting up a script together to move nested folders with files in it to a doc lib n sharepoint as it is
  I'm sure i should be able to use powershell for this and i need an assistance ... almost there.

  This snipped does work but i get error:

  Method invocation failed because [System.IO.DirectoryInfo] doesn't contain a method named 'OpenRead'.

  Add-PSSnapin Microsoft.SharePoint.PowerShell -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue
  
  #[System.Reflection.Assembly]::LoadWithPartialName("Microsoft.SharePoint") > $null
  
  [System.reflection.Assembly]::LoadWithPartialName("Microsoft.SharePoint") 
  [System.Reflection.Assembly]::LoadWithPartialName("System.web")
  
  function UploadAllFiles($WebURL, $DocLibName, $FolderPath)
  {
  
   #Get the Web & Lists to upload the file
   $site = New-Object Microsoft.SharePoint.SPSite($WebURL)
   $web= $site.OpenWeb()
  
  
  #Get the Target Document Library to upload
  $List = $Web.GetFolder($DocLibName)
  
  #Get the Files from Local Folder
  $Files = Get-ChildItem $FolderPath 
  #You can filter files by: -filter “*.pdf” 
  
  #upload the files
  foreach ($File in $Files)
  {
      #Get the Contents of the file to FileStream 
  
      #Error here Method invocation failed because [System.IO.DirectoryInfo] doesn't contain a method named 'OpenRead'.
      $stream = (Get-Item $file.FullName).OpenRead() 
  	                      
      $uploaded = $List.Files.Add($File.Name,$stream)               
      
  	$stream.Dispose()
  }
  
  #Dispose the site object
  $site.Dispose()
  }
  
  
  #call the upload function
  UploadAllFiles "http://ServerName/" "TestDoc" "D:\myrootfolder"

  This works but it doesn't copy the nested folder across as it is it just copies only the files inside the root folder.

  Any help will be appreciated.

  Thanks a lot
