I am using the FSO in my program and everything is working fine until
I try to use the Move command as follows:
fs.MoveFile strFileOld, strFileNew

Then I get the "Permission Denied" error.

Then when I check file attributes, there are no restrictions.

Please tell me what is causing this.

Thank you.

the file could be in use; the permissions on the file or the target
directory may be preventing it

do yourself a favor and drop the FSO. VB has the FileCopy, Name and Kill
statements that will let you move files or you can write a short bit of code
to do it. You'll have a finer degree of control and will lose the slow,
bloated disaster that is the FSO.
