Looks like the problem is the WssPost.exe program..... it seems that the creators of this program (our esteemed colleagues in another state) set a limit on how long the string in lcFile is. Too long and BOOM!!!

We will get in touch with them and get this corrected pronto!

Thanks for helping!

>Last time I had this problem I removed the /N and it's worked fine since. That was when customers started moving from Win XP to Win 7.
