Hi Dimitris,After I posted the issue and kept on thinking what could be wrong, I startedto realize that g4c has to get the path from the Windows OS and since I hadthe issue on Windows XP which doesn't allow paths > 260, I suppose the g4cerror message is just a forwarded message from the Windows OS.I currently can't check it out on Windows 7 but I expect this doesn't throwthe error?The error reported by "extract" is only on the options that concern file paths.The other options allow longer strings, so I think everything is fine.Sorry for the misunderstanding,Chris ---In [email protected], <chris.kevany@...> wrote : I found something else...if '$fsource$srcID' > '' <-----andifexists FILE '~$fsource$srcID' extract 'fsource$srcID' ROOT temp <----- use drive $temp[0][1] if $$drive.type = removable or $$drive.type = cdrom fman_path = 'C:/' endifendifThis generates two 260 characters errors on both marked lines.Some people nowadays use extremely complex and deep paths.Chris
