Does anyone have anything to offer on this
problem?
We are currently using three versions of R:Base as
development environments (mostly fixing old stuff with two). These are
6.5++ for DOS, 6.5++ for Windows, and 7.0 for Windows. In each environment
when trying to access files (i.e. Delete) long file names are not recognized if
and only if the filesystem is on a Netware volume. If the data is local or
on a Windows share, these files are completely usable. I can share some
examples if it would do any good.
All three versions have been tested on three
systems, 2 running Win2k and one NT 4.0. In all cases, a command line
'DOS' window displayed the files as expected. The dir command in R:Base
for Windows displayed 9 characters of the long filename with no extension.
In R:Base for DOS, these files were ommitted.
We have had our Netware patches updated and have
tested the drives with no errors. One possibility is that a character
setting is incorrect. Is there a setting that might affect the system this
way?
Thanks for wading through this. All help, as
always, is greatly appreciated. Maybe we'll write a song about the
answer-ers.
