But that would have been wrong, Sir James. Like I said, when I

double-clicked, I got absolutely nothing.

Because nothing happened ..... duh.

 

Later, when I tried to copy and paste, I got "Access denied." You can

read, can't you? I made that quite clear. After googling that error

message (with network , remote, shared) and listening to the advice I

received here, I found a way to fix my problem.

 

I'm not even going to bother addressing (or quoting) your irrelevant and

asinine rant. Rather ... I suggest you remove the burr from your ass and

start your day over.

 

Thanks for the help ô¿Ô¬

number of points, from the beginning..

No problem. I am very very rude - to most people.
