what type of loop is this?

I have the following csv file with this info:
Frequency,Filename,Destination,Destination Filename

Sample file
------------------------
Daily,File01.txt,G:\Daily\Somewhere,DailyFile_%Date%.txt
Weekly,File02.txt,G:\Weekly\Somewhere,WeeklyFile_%Date%.txt
Monthly,File03.txt,G:\Monthly\Somewhere,MonthlyFile_%Date%.txt
------------------------

What type of loop do i create?

I know it has to read the file first and then copy each file line by line.

Sorry...

I want the script to read each line and copy the corresponding file to the destination using the destination name.

First get the directory alone, then store in variable 'Dir'
Code:

Loop Parse, Dir, `n
 FileRead File_%A_Index%, %A_LoopField% ; File1, File2, etc contain the line with the filename

Then do the same with the other file

Not tested - may need some debugging
