To reproduce:
1. In Windows XP Professional, create a D: drive with NTFS file system.
Create a file named d:\file1 with any contents .
2. For this file, in Properties dialog Advanced buttons select
Encrypt contents to secure data
option
3. Make sure that C: drive uses FAT32 file system.
4. In VFP 8, run the command
COPY FILE d:\file1 TO c:\file2
Observed result:
Cannot create file c:\file2
error occurs.
This breaks my existing application.
My application runs using encrypted report files in NTFS drive.
It uses Markus Egger GenRepoX to pre-process reports.
GenRepoX tries to copy an encrypted report layout file to a windows temporary
directory in C: drive which uses FAT32 file system.
It seems that XP blocks VFP COPY FILE command.
Any idea how to make COPY FILE command to work without converting C: drive to NTFS?
