Hi

I suspect it's because your temp directory located at "C:\Documents and Settings\USERNAME\Local Settings\Temp" - C:\Documents and Settings\USERNAME\Local Settings is a *hidden* directory by default. If you CD SYS(2023) and then MKDIR '\mykatal\andmed' it works OK. It will work as above if you were to change your temp directory to (say) c:\temp.
