moving files to another project did not work correctly
I tried to copy a bunch of files from one project to another project using File - Utilities - Manage - Copy - Another Project.
This is what happened (folder names changed for client confidentiality):
I wanted to copy files from, let's say, Project Y to Project X. Here is what I started with:
C:\My_Projects\Project_Y\all_au_diff-dmns_rw_2009.STR
C:\My_Projects\Project_Y\all_au_geo_orig_num_2009.STR
C:\My_Projects\Project_Y\all_au_rw_2009.STR
C:\My_Projects\Project_Y\Ass17a.DAT
C:\My_Projects\Project_Y\assays_2009.DAT
C:\My_Projects\Project_Y\Col17a.DAT
C:\My_Projects\Project_Y\collars_2009.DAT
C:\My_Projects\Project_Y\bm_mm.DAT
C:\My_Projects\Project_Y\Sur17a.DAT
C:\My_Projects\Project_Y\surveys_2009.DAT
Here is what I expected to end up with:
C:\My_Projects\Project_X\all_au_diff-dmns_rw_2009.STR
C:\My_Projects\Project_X\all_au_geo_orig_num_2009.STR
C:\My_Projects\Project_X\all_au_rw_2009.STR
C:\My_Projects\Project_X\Ass17a.DAT
C:\My_Projects\Project_X\assays_2009.DAT
C:\My_Projects\Project_X\Col17a.DAT
C:\My_Projects\Project_X\collars_2009.DAT
C:\My_Projects\Project_X\bm_mm.DAT
C:\My_Projects\Project_X\Sur17a.DAT
C:\My_Projects\Project_X\surveys_2009.DAT
And here is what I did end up with:
C:\My_Projects\Project_Xall_au_diff-dmns_rw_2009.STR
C:\My_Projects\Project_Xall_au_geo_orig_num_2009.STR
C:\My_Projects\Project_Xall_au_rw_2009.STR
C:\My_Projects\Project_XAss17a.DAT
C:\My_Projects\Project_Xassays_2009.DAT
C:\My_Projects\Project_XCol17a.DAT
C:\My_Projects\Project_Xcollars_2009.DAT
C:\My_Projects\Project_Xbm_mm.DAT
C:\My_Projects\Project_XSur17a.DAT
So, what the copy routine did was prepend the name of the project folder to the file name, but without the "\", and put the resulting file in the root folder. That's hardly useful.

Good day Peter
There does seem to be an issue with this function. I will look into it and get it resolved.
Thanks for your feedback.
