Getting "permission denied" Error with FileSystemObject

G

Guest

I am trying to copy files using the FileSystemObject in VBA. When trying to
copy a remote file to my local drive, I continuously get the "permission
denied" error. I've tried virtually everything in terms of permissions on my
local drive to no avail. Any ideas?

You mention that you have looked at the local permissions. Have you checked
your permissions on the remote files/folder you are copy the files from?

No problem with the remote sydtem since I am only reading from there. The
problem occurs with writing.

It is possible to generate this error if you do not have permissions on the
remote system, which is why I asked. Without more information as to the
users and permissions for the folders/files involved it is difficult to
speculate on a cause.
