Now that I look back, I could be interpreting the whole thing wrong.  The
"\mydata (Comet)" might be completely normal and not meaning to reflect a
directory path but rather simply indicate that it's a Comet search.
Anyways, I don't use the Windows GUI much so I'm not the right person to
help you here beyond noting that it is complaining about a path problem.
