Hi Googe,

You can copy any file by using the FileSystemObject and using a UNC path name for the destination path, which is of the form \\PC_ID\Etc.

The "dropping" is accomplished by using standard VB6 Drag/drop events - the VB6 help system has a whole section on this subject.

Also the MSDN is a VERY valuable resource on this subject.

Cheers.
