Whats your code?

Permission denied usually means the file is in use.

or the user doesn't have privleges/permissions

Hii,

I checked file is not in use. And I caneasily copy/pes/delete files from Windows/system folder in windows explorer. But whe i tried to do it through code, it generates error:

Run time error"70":
Permission denied.

My code is,

retval = Trim(GetWindowsDirectory(buffer, 255))

dest = buffer & "\System"

comdatafile = App.Path & "\" & "Components.data" 'Data file contains name of the files to be copied.

Set tx = fsy.OpenTextFile(comdatafile, ForReading, False)

Files = tx.ReadLine()
While (Files <> "")

srce = App.Path & "\" & Files
Set file1 = fsy.GetFile(srce)
If fsy.FileExists(srce) Then
fsy.CopyFile srce, dest
Else
MsgBox "File:" & Files & "not found. Application configuration failed.", vbApplicationModal + vbExclamation + vbOKOnly, "Application Error...."
fsy.DeleteFile (comloadfile)
Exit Sub
End If

Files = tx.ReadLine()

Wend

tx.Close

I do not see any problem. If anyone can tell me what is wrong?

Thanks in advance.
