Sorry, I forgot to specify that I am using Netware.  As an admin user, =
there are no security issues, and G: is not in the search path.  If my =
filename is "blahblah.dat", I can say=20

  fp =3D open(current_dir()&"blahblah.dat","r")=20

with no problem, but

  system("dir "&current_dir()&"blahblah.dat")

returns "Path not found".  Note that it's *path* not found rather than =
file not found.  The problem is directly related to the supposedly hidden =
partition, since that's the only drive that has this problem.

Mike:

  You didn't say what network you are using so I am assuming NETWARE.
  Just a thought, could your problem with the system() have anything to
  do with which drives are search drives in your script file ? Also What
  about security settings.
