Copying file problem

Platform vb.Net
When I use the "file.copy" command a "file access denied" error occurs.
I give the sourcefile and destinationfile and also set the "overwrite"
property to "true".
Both the dest. and source files are present,they have the same file names
and extensions, also they are in different locations.I want to overwrite
these two ".bmp" files.
But the above error occurs?

Any suggestions?
Thanks.
