Re: Moving Files over the network through a program

Well I handed it Application, which is the Parent Window, but that really
wasn't the problem, here's what the problem is:
Notice my first line of code:
> LPSHFILEOPSTRUCT fileop;
It shouldn't be LPSHFILEOPSTRUCT, it should be SHFILEOPSTRUCT as LP is a
pointer to a SHFILEOPSTRUCT. So I'm declaring a pointer and then proceeding
to do things like this:
> fileop->hwnd= NULL;
> fileop->wFunc=FO_MOVE;
> fileop->pFrom=copyPath.c_str();
> fileop->pTo="c:\\Data";
> fileop->fFlags=FOF_SILENT | FOF_NOCONFIRMMKDIR | FOF_NOCONFIRMATION;
None of which is in memory I own, hence the weird problems.
I needed to do:
SHFILEOPSTRUCT fileop;
fileop.hwnd=NULL;
fileop.wFunch=FO_MOVE;
..
..
And when I call shfileop, i need to give it &fileop.
