long filename recogition lost
It must be able to recognise long file names or Windows
probably wouldn't boot, because it uses long file names itself. What is the exact error message that comes up?

long filename recogition lost
I have a file called c:\My Documents\Lions
Info\Donations.doc. When I doubled click the file name (either on the desktop shortcut, from Win Explorer or My Computer) Wordpad starts (i.e. the window opens) and then I get the error "Can't find file c:\My" and then it says more things I can't remember:-( -----Original Message----- It must be able to recognise long file names or Windows probably wouldn't boot, because it uses long file names itself.

change shortcut string, enclose filename in quotes, it is assuming that the
filename truncates at first space and that after that are parameters, eg copy[space]file1[space]file2 try "C:\My Documents\Lions Info\Donations.doc" -- Adaware http://www.lavasoft.de spybot http://security.kolla.de AVG free antivirus http://www.grisoft.com Panda online AntiVirus scan http://www.pandasoftware.com/ActiveScan/ Catalog of removal tools http://www.pandasoftware.com/download/utilities/ Blocking Unwanted Parasites with a Hosts file http://mvps.org/winhelp2002/hosts.htm links provided as a courtesy, read all instructions on the pages before use Grateful thanks to the authors/webmasters "Baffulled" wrote in message ... | I have a file called c:\My Documents\Lions | Info\Donations.doc. | | When I doubled click the file name (either on the desktop | shortcut, from Win Explorer or My Computer) Wordpad starts | (i.e. the window opens) and then I get the error "Can't | find file c:\My" and then it says more things I can't | remember:-( | | -----Original Message----- | It must be able to recognise long file names or Windows | probably wouldn't boot, because it uses long file names | itself. | | What is the exact error message that comes up? | | Eric, | http://www.pcbuyerbeware.co.uk/ | http://www.sharedbirthday.co.uk/ | | -----Original Message----- | All of the sudden, my system no longer recognizes long | filenames.
