Actually it would be safer to use the full UNC Path instead since different
workstations/users can map drives differently.

Ii don't know if this will help, but it happens all the time here.  People
try to launch applications without having all their drives 'mapped' 
Look in Windows Explorer and see if U: exists.  It the map to U: got lost
(disconnected) any reference to it won't work. 
It didn't look like your code mapped it on the fly. 

Just a thought.

Hi all, 
The following code was working perfectly, 2 days ago after a windows update,
it stopped working. The error message is... 

Can not find the U:\note.txt file 

Strange, it works when I trace it. 

--offnote.cmd 
SET VAR vpnum REAL 
IF vpnum IS NULL OR vpnum = 0 THEN 
  GOTO END 
ENDIF 
SET HEADINGS OFF 
DROP TABLE offnotes_dup 
PROJECT TEMPORARY offnotes_dup FROM offnotes USING * + 
WHERE patnumbr = .vpnum 
UPDATE offnotes_dup SET dictdata = + 
'###########################################################################
#' + 
WHERE dictdata = 'DICTATED BUT NOT READ TO EXPEDITE FILING' 
OUTPUT u:\note.txt 
SELECT dictdata FROM offnotes_dup + 
WHERE patnumbr = .vpnum ORDER BY rdate_=D linenum=A 
OUTPUT SCREEN 
LAUNCH u:\note.txt 
ERASE u:\note.txt 
LABEL END 
RETURN 

What am I doing wrong?
