I don't think there is. You will have to use VNC Viewer or something like
that to accomplish that. I use PCAnywhere.

Yes. You can not drag into our out of the screen but if you look in the
preferences you'll see an option for local resources.

Have a look at these instructions for RDC 1.0.3
<http://www.microsoft.com/mac/otherproducts/otherproducts.aspx?pid=Article_MoveFiles>
and if you're using RDC 2.0 beta then look for something similar.

Hope this helps!
