Ben, on Novell 4.x there is a NetWare Loadable Module called "LONG.NAM" You will find this file in the SYSTEM Directory. Hope that helps -----Urspr�ngliche Nachricht----- Von: Ben [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Gesendet: Freitag, 19. September 2003 19:35 An: RBASE-L Mailing List Betreff: [RBASE-L] - Character Settings and Long Filenames in Netware 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. Ben
