I can't find a way to copy a whole directory. When I ask it to do it - across my network - it copies the contents of the directory. I have to create a directory for a destination and then it copies contents into that dir. Works out alright.
But would be better if I could just say copy this dir to C:\ for instance, and it would copy that whole directory tree with the directory name, if you see what I mean.
I don't know what to call it. The folder with the dir name. Or folder name if you wish. I want that folder copied over, that dir copied over, not just the contents.
Am I failing to use the prog correctly?

From my understanding, this is functioning as designed. Say you were in dos, and did a "copy c:\folder c:\" command (which is copy ), it will copy the files included in the directory called "folder", and will not make a copy of the directory.
Creating a new folder is necessary on the destination side.
