>Scenario: VFP 7 app running on an application server under Terminal Services. We want to copy a file to a user-selected path. RDP is set up to show local workstation drives. Works fine if user selects a path on the server. But if they choose a path on their own local drive, the app hangs at the COPY TO command. Or I shoud say, appears to. It actually works, it just takes bloody forever.

>The file in question is an Excel spreadsheet of 594KB. It takes a full fifteen minutes to transfer from within the VFP app. If I open Excel on the server and do a "Save as" to the exact same remote drive path, it takes about 10 seconds.

If you would just try CopyFile function to copy the file as is, would it work?
