Thanks for the quick response.
So would this be correct if the file was located in Documents:
cp /home/user/MyDocs/test.tgz /root/test.tgz

Thanks to both of you. I will try that when I get home tonight.
How to you copy or save a file to /root.
I have Xterm and can become root, but I do not know how to save or move a file from MyDocs to /root.
Thanks in advance.
