Copy files

Hi Experts,

I have win app which successufully copies any files from local drive to net share A but I am having problem to copy PDF files
only to net share B. The code is the same for both and almost identical except file filter . I am getting "access is denied to : share B" error message.
I have checked security and I can read write files (using my user account) in \\share B\myfolder with no problem manually.

Thank you.

I also tried to map it manually and use Z:\myfolder as local to copy via app but still getting access is denied to "Z:\myfolder\mynewfile.pdf".

????What's wrong ?

As I understand there is something different between Net share A and B settings. What it could be ?

Here is what I do :

1 check if local file size > 0
2 check if Net Share exists
3 copy file

I tried File.Copy and fileinfo.CopyTo but same result.

Anybody here ?

1. Are Share A and Share B on the same server?

2. Can you explore both shares in Windows Explorer before running your application?

eternal,

1 No. These shares on two different servers (both Win 2000)
2 Yes.

Hi to All,

I have found a diffrence. :) I had to add my account to write to this floder via Computer Management >> Shares
Then it started to do the job.

Thank you. Please close this question.
