Hmmm, I was actually thinking of copying using drive letters rather than a
UNC, however I am now not sure that I would want EA's copied in all cases..;-)
I see others have comented on this also, so I guess I need to actually do some
tests myself to see what happens.
For example, the EA's for a REXX script may contain machine specific data
(EG: drive letters) that would probably need to change on another platform.
Without EA's REXX would automatically re-build it anyway, but if the REXX code
HAD to change then there is not much point in copying EA's...
Cheers........pk.
