I can't seem to drag a Large file from the Virtual Desktop (XP Pro) to the
Vista desktop (Vista Business) it only copies a few hundred bytes and acts as
if the copy is complete.

What am I missing?

Thanks,

Ben

OK, I set up a folder on the Virtual PC and set sharing on it, and created a
shortcut to it on the Vista Desktop.... all works well that way...

Thanks!!!

You are better off setting up and using normal network file sharing
between the guest and the host. That is rock solid. :-)
