How do I copy a network file to all of my users local machines.
I would like to copy the network file "\\Sam\2008\profile.aws" to a user's local "C:\Documents and Settings\%logon name%\Application Data\Autodesk\AutoCAD\Profiles\" location, during startup if possible.

The only way I know of is to paste the following code into Notepad, then in Notepad, click File>Save. In the box that appears, click the Combobox beside "Save As Type" and select "All Files." Save the file to C:\Documents and Settings\%USERNAME%\Start Menu\Programs\Startup. You can title the file anything you want as long as the extension is .vbs. You have to do this with each of your user's PCs. Someone might know of an easier way....
