Ben,

I assume you have the Troi File plug-in, so I guess you would be able to use
the TrFile_CopyFolder function and then the TrFile_DeleteFolder function (to
delete the original on the C drive).

TrFile_CopyFolder( switches ; sourceFolderSpec ; destinationFolderSpec )

Copies a folder to the specified folder path.

Peace, love, and brown rice,

Yes, it will work. We use it all the time to move images from desktop  
machines to the server. I believe if you use the Move command instead  
of Copy, you may be able to delete the original in one command. I  
can't test it right now, so I'm not positive, but you can check it out.

Yes!  It worked great.  Great work around.  Something is screwy with the delete, but none the less the folder moved.  I added -Allfilesandsubfolders (something like that) to the delete but I'm still getting a -47 error.  I'll figure that out.
