That seems to be what I need. Now I just have to test it. Thanks
a lot!

In case anyone else is interested, here is what it says:

John Sowden, 2004-11-25:

  when I attempt to copy a file accross a lan (netbios type lan)
  I get a "lock violation" error wne using the latest/last
  version of 4dos. I have tried a previous version of 4dos with
  no prblem. What's changed? What's the work arround?

Charles Dye, 2004-11-27:

  This issue was mentioned in the support forum a few months
  back. Apparently 4DOS attempts to lock the source file before
  the COPY starting with version 7.01. [...] if it's a
  peer-to-peer network and the remote machine is running some
  version of DOS, then loading SHARE on the remote machine might
  conceivably help. If all else fails, just use XCOPY for this
  specific situation.
