problem with copying a file

[patelr]

I use VB 6 program to copy file from a server to a local pc using filecopy statement, but it seems to be very slow, it takes about 2 to 3 minutes. however, if i use dos copy command it takes about 10 seconds. I am using win 2000 platform, have tried with different service packs, but no joy. when i use windows explorer, problem seems to be worse. Filecopy works fine on win98.

Our server is a IBM optical juke BOX, with OS/2 controller and runs netbios to share the juke box across the LAN. Win2000 run the latest netbios patches.

Can someone shed a light on this problem.

Then it is not Vb. I'd asked the question over in one of the OS or Net help forums [/b][/i][/u]_{*******************************************************
