I have a java Interface, in a java application, that defines all of me SQL
definitions. The problem I am having is the jdbc connect that has a dos
address in the "Program Files" directory. It is killed at the end of
"Program" and I have tried "progra~1" to no avail. Does anybody have a
solution to handle the Windoze naming convention in Dos so I can point to a
data base I have in the "Program Files" directory?

Thanks in advance.

try just spelling it out longhand. Windows has two names for every
file, a long one and an 8.3.

4NT dir /x will show you the short names.

Thank Roedy,
Ya, I been in the field as long as you and realized that there are two
formats. That was not the problem. It was me just fingering up my directory
string.

Thanks anyway...sorry to take your time.
