I have a problem when I want to copy files to another computer in my network.
When I try to copy from Comp A in Explorer to Com B in Workgroup I get the
message "cannot copy: Access denied". Yet when I go to computer B and open
Explorer and Work Group I can copy from A to B. All the folders have been set
for sharing on both computers. I appreciate any help you can give me.

Skip,

The "access denied" error can have many causes. Knowing what operating systems
are involved would help a lot here. Please read these articles, and provide

My problem was solved by the article that directed me to remove the share
feature on the problem files and reboot. I now get a two way file transfer.
Thanks for your assistance Chuck.
