Vista - Moving Data files from one User id to another

Moving Data files from one User id to another

When running my Vista Home PC I have different user ids that are used.

When logged on as the Administrator, is there any way to move files
between one user id to another? Or at least from my Admin id to
another? I guess I could move them into the Public folder then log onto
the other id and move them into the place I want to use them. But that
seems rather a crude way of doing things. I always thought the
Administrator would have authority to do any task in any user id.

How is that supposed to work?

Thank you,

Richard..

Re: Moving Data files from one User id to another

Great, Thank you. Now that works better.

Are there any other programs I should/need to do that to?

Thanks,
