Hi Ed,

Can you let me know what I've done wrong? I am working on a Novell network called FS1 and the print que I want to copy the file to is PRINTQ_HP. When I issue the following:

COPY FILE C:\TESTREPORT.TXT TO \\FS1\PRINTQ_HP

a copy of TESTREPORT is created on the root of my harddrive called PRINTQ_HP. Any ideas?
