I've heard that message before, and it was also when there was no sound permissions related reason for it. Are you saying that you can transfer files such as BKS and RTF files from that folder, but anything with a ZIP extention won't go? Just for a test, have you tried controlling the transfer from the other computer. I have found that although everything is set up to share both ways equally, it doesn't always work that way in practice. :-) Sarah Van Oosterwijck http://home.earthlink.net/~netentity/
