Symptom: Using File Manager, copy a file onto a networked drive's subdirectory will fail. This appears to be true no matter what is used as a source drive (c or a networked drive). The FM asks if I want to replace the networked SubDirectory with the file I asked it to move into that subdirectory. Method: Drag file "onto" subdirectory as shown in FM, OR open up all pertinent subdirectories and drag file from one drives subdirectory to the other. leoh@hdw.csd.harris.com Leo Hinds (305)973-5229 Gfx ... gfx ... :-) whfg orpnhfr V "ebg"grq zl fvtangher svyr lbh guvax V nz n creireg ?!!!!!!? ... znlor arkg gvzr

I believe that this is only true with DOS 4.x. Does anyone have a counterexample?
