Hi again.
For the record, I can confirm that Windows (the Windows API) has a
maximum-length limitation on pathnames (path + filename) of 260
symbols including the drive letter, colon and slash, e.g
C:/Users/hb/foo/bar.txt has nchar("C:/Users/hb/foo/bar.txt") == 23
symbols. For details, see Secti
Hi,
I stumbled on a solution/workaround for Windows. With the command
'subst' you can assign a device letter to any pathname. In your case,
you can do something like:
# Mount drive letter X: to long path
rootPath <- "C:/Documents and Settings/Elizabeth/My
Documents/Research/ExonArrays/aroma.af
Thanks Henrik, that was the problem. My earlier version (that worked)
was 25 characters shorter than the one that failed that I emailed about.
Is that helpful?
Best,
Elizabeth

Hi,
this has nothing to do with the new CDF nor the Windows Shortcut
links, but instead a Windows specific limit of the length of the
absolute path/pathname you are trying to create. Yours are too long.
Your current directory is:
rootPath <- "C:/Documents and Settings/Elizabeth/My
Documents/Re
