There are a few very limited situations where it can be made to work, but this is not one of them. You'll have to rename your directory. Another hack is to use the 8.3 version of the filename, but this is unreliable at best. > This e-mail and any files transmitted with it are confidential and intended > solely for the use of > the individual or entity to whom they are addressed.
