Whats tghe best way to copy a group of files
« on: February 29, 2004, 10:55:40 am »

similar to an earlier post i read, except im not trying to move these. i need to keep the originals on my external HDD and copy my top 100 or so to my laptop (updated every few weeks). ive tried to use the copy paste functions in the drop down menus but they actually cut paste the data.

There must be a way to copy these files over.

Have you tried the "Move/Copy Disk file" tool under -> library tools? It has an option to copy files to a different location.

Might Be A Bug, Report It In The MC Thread If It Does It With The Current Version.
