Rocky,

Don't know about virtual box but in VMWare Workstation I can just copy the
file then paste onto VM desktop.

Dear List:

I'm running VM VirtualBox and set up a machine with Office 2007 for a test
bed (to avoid that pesky install every time I want to switch Office
versions).

Now I want to copy some mdbs from my C drive to the VM but of course the VM
doesn't see my HD.  I suppose I could copy to a USB and then off the usb
from inside the VM but I'll bet there's an easier way.

Is there?

TIA
