Hello,

"Copy File(s)..." work fine with UNC paths. The copy file functionality is just a wrapper around the CopyFile Windows API.

I tested the following:

Copy File(s) from "e:\test\HP0011.jpg" to "\\Win7-64\corpdata"
Display Message Box "%_SB_ERRORCODE%" -- ""

It copied the file HP0011.jpg from e:\test to \\Win7-64\corpdata and the returned %_SB_ERRORCODE% value was is nonzero.

Does this help?

It works fine. I changed the test code to the following:

Set Variable %SERVER_DIR% to "\\Win7-64\corpdata"
Set Variable %LOCAL_DIR% to "e:\test"

Copy File(s) from "%LOCAL_DIR%\HP0011.jpg" to "%SERVER_DIR%"
Display Message Box "%_SB_ERRORCODE%" -- ""

Delete Files "%LOCAL_DIR%\HP0011.jpg"

Copy File(s) from "%SERVER_DIR%\HP0011.jpg" to "%LOCAL_DIR%"
Display Message Box "%_SB_ERRORCODE%" -- ""

It copied the file HP0011.jpg from e:\test to \\Win7-64\corpdata, then deleted the original e:\test\HP0011.jpg and copied it back from "\\Win7-64\corpdata\HP0011.jpg" to "e:\test"

BTW, just for fun, you can call the CopyFileA Windows API directly (see attached screenshot) to copy the file from your UNC path.

You can then check the GetLastError Windows API return code to see what is going wrong in your environment.

The error codes are listed here:

Does this help? If you are interested, I can send you my test project.
