All I'm trying to do is something like Win Explorer does, but no luck. COPY FILE seems to "commandeer" the entire Windows system. Any ideas on how to overcome this, something like Win Explorer does?
Hi Bruce,
Try this VB code. It displays everything like Windows while copying files. This code can be transformed to VFP.

cDestin = "c:\test\"
cSource = "c:\data\Examples.dbf"
winShell = CreateObject("Shell.Application")
winShell.NameSpace(cDestin).CopyHere cSource
