As well it shouldn't.  I already told you that you can't use normal file
operations for what you are trying to accomplish.  Please read my other

It is not a physical folder to begin with.  The entire Network Neighborhood
subsystem is not a part of the file system at all.  It is a virtual system.
You cannot simply move a file into it programmably like you can with folders
on the file system .

What is CopyFile() actually returning?  What is GetLastError() returning?

I doubt that.

Of course not.  It is not a real folder to begin with.

No, it is not.

That is fine.

The FTP upload speed?  You said that you were able to transfer fine, just
slow.  That is not the same thing as not being able to transfer at all.
