Cannot copy error in Windows 2000

I have two windows 2000 machines -- A and B. I have been seeing the following message 
when I try to copy a file sitting at desktop in maching A to a shared folder machine 
B (actually it is the D drive on machine B).

"Cannot copy : Access is denied. The source file may be in use."

I am able to drop files sitting at B's desktop to A's shared folder. I am also able 
to pick a file from A's shared folder to B's desktop, sitting at B. Finally, I am 
able to pick a file from B's shared folder to A's desktop, sitting at A.

I have a feeling that it is software related problem. In particular it looks like 
permissions setting problem. I may have changed something that I do not remember.

Thanks! Any help is greatly appreciated.
