    I am using Parallels desktop running Vista on my MBP at home to access my office desktop PC, via Remote Desktop Connection, in order to get at files there to work with at home in real time. Is there a way to transfer these files to the Parallels Windows desktop and then to my Mac desktop (that is simpler than emailing them to myself)? A thousand thank-yous to anyone who can point at a non-klugy solution!

    I can image following ways
    1. Just share the directory in Office-PC and access this share (should work! Since you can connect via remote desktop)

    2. Setup FTP-server in Windows PC and access PC from Mac using ftp; I prefer free open-source Filezilla, but I'm not sure about whether it is easy to configure it

    Elric's Suggestions for Win RDC to Parallels to Mac

    Will try both of your suggestions. Not entirely certain how to do either but will yell for help if get stuck. Thank you.
