Hi Lorne,
I use textmerge quite a bit, and here is what I would do:
lfullname = lpath + lfile
SET TEXTMERGE ON
SET TEXTMERGE TO (lFullName) noshow
\3
\2
\1
set textmerge to
modi file (lFullName)

I have also tried it with TO lfullname to no avail, it still opens as lfullname.txt, not expinv.csv as in the var lfile.
