>ArnoldLike Nancy, said, check the name of the computer you mapped to.
When I said UNC I meant the name of a computer in a Windows newtwork (not the IP address). If it is your local machine, then a full absolute drive and path (like c:\mdir) would work. If it is accross a network, either a domain-based network or a workgroup, each computer has a name. This is the one you use.
