XXCOPY always seems to be highly rated by many people but I once
tried XXCOPY and it was way too messy for me because it used line
commands.

There was little good help text for novices. I looked mainly at
http://www.xxcopy.com/index.htm

Are there any GUI front ends and friendly help text add-ons?

OK, I made the change in the congig.

I can get the two "rich copy" options on the context menu and I
select the one for copy.

However no folder structure gets copied over. All I get is just a
copy of the the original file. The file I am copying is in a folder
which has several subfolders. The file is located from the results
list of a "Find" command.

What else do I need to check?

You may wish to have a look at the xxcopy yahoo discussion group.

Ok, I was already wondering why you were looking for "Rich copy" but then I
forgot to ask. "Rich copy" is not the command you need to copy a folder
structure but "Create Branch(es) Here"! Right-drag a folder(s) from list to
tree or from tree to tree and then click "Create Branch(es) Here".
