Vern,
I can verify that, yes indeed, i am crazy.
and yes, i meant right click.
ctrl-x (cut) and ctrl-v (paste) gave the same error.
right-click-'cut' and right-click-'paste' did the same.
sounds like a bug to me.
thanks anyway,
Rick

I'm on XP, V5R1M0. When you said left-drag, did you mean right-drag? When I
left-drag, I need to hold Shift when releasing the button, in order to
move, Ctrl to copy.
Anyway, it worked fine here, both locally and on a mapped drive to the root
of the 400. I don't know what to say, you may still be crazy, even if it
works.
