>You removed the double quotes around the path of the EXE file? I think the p
roblem is that when you
have two sets of double quotes (as in the first version), you need to enclos
e the hole shebang in
double quotes:
""c:\Unix2Dos\Unix2Dos.exe" "C:\Documents and Settings\chris.rose\My
Documents\FTP\CABHLDRLSACTNCONSTANTS.TAB;1""
Not needed now as you don't have spaced etx in path to Unix2Dos.exe, but mig
ht be worth knowing for
next time...

of the report.
