Hello, My task is to copy sets of files from remote systems to local system. The remote systems have to be accessed securely by authentication. The script runs on the local system. With WMI (in vbscript), I can use my credentials to log in and retrieve the list of files to be transferred. However, I cannot work out how to copy the files once I have the list. I see many examples of copying files from local to remote, through Google &c. But, not the reverse. This does not work: For Each oFile in FilesList oFile.Copy("\\system\share") Next It returns error code 9, which I believe is "invalid object," for each file. This works but copies the file to the specified folder on the remote system: For Each oFile in FilesList oFile.Copy("C:\share") Next That's not useful. ;-) Can somebody help me out with this problem? Thanks. mp -- Michael Powe michael@trollope.org Naugatuck CT USA You may worry about your hair-do today, but tomorrow much peanut butter will be sold.
