Hello all, I'm having a weird windows problem I wonder if anybody knows anything about: all of a sudden programs that work from the dos prompt at having difficulty with long file and folder names. I.e. when I try to write to the directory "My Documents" (actually c:\Documents and Settings\Dan\My Documents), the files actually get written to a separate directory, c:\Documents%20and%20Settings\Dan\My%20Documents which appears along side the other in the file tree. The contents of this new directory to not map onto the "My Documents" directory. They are separate. This problem has arisen in the last week or so, and it is affecting bat files that were working fine until recently. Here's an example of the syntax I've been using:
cd\saxon6_5_3 java -jar saxon.jar -o "c:/documents and settings/dan/my documents/_filing cabinet/dm2/3.revised/name/name.htm" "c:/documents and settings/dan/my documents/_filing cabinet/dm2/3.revised/name/name.xml" "c:/documents and settings/dan/my documents/_filing cabinet/dm2/xslt/dm1file2.xsl" cd\
I've looked for help but not seen anything relevant. Any suggestions? -dan
