Copying a file structure?

Thats where I went wrong, I found that option _after_ doing the UNIX rename.

Right now I have the map file preserved with the file structure
however whenever I copy it to a filepro directory and then view it in
Filepro I get prompted for a password.

Is there a way to import the map file over the top of another and have
it pull in that file structure?  I noticed the only thing different is
the first line of the file.  I may try copying the file structure from
the map file to another in a text editor and see if it takes.

Thanks,
