Hello,

Has anyone had any problems with the CopyFile winapi function working with
NTFS volumes or/and  WinXP? A client has decided to use WinXP where the app
was initially tested for Win95/95/ME and the part of the application which
is supposed to copy some files to some local folders and others PC's over
the network is thought to have been causing problems. There have been no
reports of this problem with users of Win9x/ME.

I did read of read-only CopyFile bug on MSDN
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;145935 but that
deosn't seem to be the problem since none of the files being copied are
read-only but I do recall of topic discussing use of CopyFile and NTFS
volumes but having problems finding the discussion.

Any tips would be very much appreciated :-)

Thanks very much.
