Are you certain that text2.txt exists in the root of the D drive? Did
you try using the FileExists FSO method to see whether FSO thinks the
file does actually exist?
set fs=Server.CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
If fs.FileExists("d:\text2.txt") then
'do copy
Else
response.write "File doesn't exist"
End if
If you're 100% certain that the file is there and FSO is reporting that
it's not, then you might want to check the permissions on the file /
drive to see whether IUSR and IWAM have rights.

Nope. The problem I am having is that it either says the file or path
can't be found. I am pretty sure I have the correct drive and path
correct, but am not sure why it is not working.
I ran the following code to find the drive letters:
Set FileSystemObject = Server.CreateObject
("Scripting.FileSystemObject") 'Create a filesystem object
Set Drives = FileSystemObject.Drives 'Create a drives collection
'step through the drive collection, and extract
'the drive letter and the type of drive
'according to the Microsoft VBScript documentation
'there are 6 distinct types of drive
For Each DiskDrive in Drives
DriveLetter = DiskDrive.DriveLetter
DriveType = DiskDrive.DriveType
Select Case DriveType
Case "0" DriveType = "Unknown type of drive"
Case "1" DriveType = "Removable drive"
Case "2" DriveType = "Fixed drive"
Case "3" DriveType = "Network drive"
Case "4" DriveType = "CD-ROM drive"
Case "5" DriveType = "RAM Disk"
End Select
Response.Write "Drive " & DriveLetter & " is a " & DriveType &
"<BR>"
Next
Set Drives = nothing
Set FileSystemObject = nothing
This gave me the following:
Drive A is a Removable drive
Drive C is a Fixed drive
Drive D is a Fixed drive
Drive E is a CD-ROM drive
Drive J is a Network drive
Drive K is a Network drive
I tried the fixed and network drive names, but kept receiving a file
can't be found message.
The following is the code I am trying to use to copy the file, but not
sure what the problem is. (Where it says D:\, I replaced that with each
drive name, but none worked):
set fs=Server.CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
set f=fs.GetFile("D:\text2.txt")
f.Copy "D:\new_test.txt",false
set f=nothing
set fs=nothing
