This one seems strange. I never encountered such a limit although Windows
certainly can have troubles with file names longer than 259 characters.
I just tested it and could confirm that everything works fine until the
file name reaches 260 characters. In that case LabVIEW returns error 6 at
the New File function primitive though. This is LabVIEW 7 and W2K.

Are you using Windows 3.1? Just kidding! But I'm sure the problem you see
is either caused by invalid characters in the file name: ":;/\?*" are some
of them. Or eventually an underlying problem in the OS be it a version or
whatever.
