No DOS software ever sees the additional long file name information from Windows. However, they do see the files with the encoded 8.3 name. In your case you can use: SET VAR VFILE = 'R:\CYBERC~1\DATA\ICT200~1.TXT' or something similar to get to the file. -- Larry ================================================ TO SEE MESSAGE POSTING GUIDELINES: Send a plain text email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] In the message body, put just two words: INTRO rbase-l ================================================ TO UNSUBSCRIBE: send a plain text email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] In the message body, put just two words: UNSUBSCRIBE rbase-l ================================================ TO SEARCH ARCHIVES: http://www.mail-archive.com/rbase-l%40sonetmail.com/
