Hi

I am attempting to copy a file using UNC file paths i.e. \\server\somepath\somefile.txt to \\server\someotherpath\somefile.txt

I am using copyfile but it does not work. If I change to path names such as P:\somfile.txt etc. it works fine.

I get no exception it just fails to do the copy.

Any ideas how I can copy using the UNC path. I have to use UNC by the way.

regards
Andrew
 
Never failed me.

May be a rights issue?

use movefile instead of copyfile.
