Hi, Daniel:
  
   Thanks, it turned out that other than using your suggestion, it turned out 
that using copy() works great. 
   However, is it possible for me not to use the actual physical url as I have 
provided in my code to access the information I intend to copy? 
   My goal is to be able to search through the remote directory, and find the 
matched files of a certain format and copy it to another server. 

Is this possible?

Alice
