>>>I tried your oF2W.SaveFolder=SYS(5) + SYS(2003) and it works fine. And, yes, it does take a while. The report I am using has about 6 pages, but very sparse information (a boxed set of about 6 fields for each record in the recordser). It took about 3 minutes. The one at the other location was taking about ten mins...that is before it crashed with what I (now) believe to be the CURDIR() error. I guess the message for the time being is to use either a literal string or your system functions. I am also curious to see if the OS is a factor. I'll do that when I get to my first location...maybe today but for sure on Monday.

It does in SP6a also. As the command is CURDIR for current directory I don't think this is a bug.
