This seems really simple, someone may have even said this before, and it's
not an "ideal" solution to the problem.  However, a work-around (not a 
"solution") to the problem of being able to see the folder you want to
copy a file into is this:

   o	drag the destination folder onto the Desktop, above the Trash Can,
	for example. 

   o	Then, close all of the extra windows (option-closeWindow closes all
	open windows).

   o	Find the file you want to copy.

   o	Drag it into the destination folder.

   o	Click once on the destination folder, and pull down "Put Away"
	from the "File" menu.
