A user had an archive on their network drive. Then they got a new computer and created an archive on their local drive. Is there an easier way than unarchiving one and then archiving it to the desired location? Can one be copied into the other?
 
Not that I've found (and believe me, I've tried). Unarchive the local and point the path back at the server archive.
 
Actually you can combine two (or more) archive file locations. When you enter a new file location for "Archive Directory" under Tools/Options/Environment/File Location, and you have an existing archive <dir>, you will be asked if you want to move the contents from the existing archive <dir> to the new archive <dir>. The same is true when you have two seperate archive <dir's>. If you change the path under Tools/Options/Environment/File Location/Archive Directory and the path points to an existing archive <dir>, you will be asked if you want to move the contents of the archive <dir> you are leaving to the the currently selected archive <dir>.
