<< Thanks a bunch, Bob, for the suggestions. Re copying the file: should I copy from server down to local? Or from one location on server to another? >> Copy the file FROM the server TO the workstation and time it. Then erase the server copy and copy the file FROM the workstation TO the server, timing it again. Compare this to the up and down times for copying the same file on a "healthy" workstation. It's important to test both directions because sometimes only one direction is messed up.
Alternatively, just search for a "Disk Speed Test Utility For Windows" and run that against the network drive from a healthy workstation and the one showing trouble. See if the access speeds match up. -- Larry
