It may be somewhat dependent on which burner software you use, but my Roxio software has always implied '9660' is only compatible with 8.3 filenames. I use the 'juliette' format, which is (supposedly) compatible across platforms, and can accommodate longer filenames. Are you sure the filenames were simply truncated, as opposed to something like "ABCD_0~1.tif"?, for which the filename was truncated but did associate a unique number (i.e., ~1, ~2,~3 ...). If you are stuck with '9660', you might consider piping a 'dir' command to a file. For example, 'dir /s /x >filename' will write a file that lists all filenames (for all subdirectories), including the long and short. This would allow you to write this file also to CD, and allow your client to cross reference the filenames. cheerios ... shAf :o) Avalon Peninsula, Newfoundland www.micro-investigations.com =============================================================== GO TO http://www.prodig.org for ~ GUIDELINES ~ un/SUBSCRIBING ~ ITEMS for SALE
