Limitation on inf and cat file name length?Hi Driver Experts:
I have a simple question:
Must the inf and cat file names be in 8.3 format? Can they be longer than 8
chars?
Any difference on 64-bit OS?
Thanks in advance.
Polaris
there are no file name length restrictions in general. 64 bit XP (which is
really server 2003 64 bit under the covers) has some restrictions on cat
file name length, I think around 28 chars

Retrieving exe file from emailIs there a way to get to the "exe" attachment blocked automatically by the
Outlook? I have send an "exe" file from my friend's computer to my email,
and forgot to rename the extension before mailing it. Now, the Outlook on my
computer has blocked the access to this file, and I have no possibility to
retrive it and save. I cannot even resent it somewhere else with the
attachment, nothing. The attachmement is simply not accessible. Outlook has
swallwed it, and does not allow any accesss to it. This seems to me like a

Run the old lotus app in a DOSBox DVM, and export the file in ASCII
delimited format.
If it already in ASCII form, you can import it directly. I am pretty
sure there are some free apps in Linux that will open them as well.
You would burn a Linux Live distro disk (Ubuntu Live DVD), boot that,
and then run the compatible app within that session, open the old file,

Rick,
Could be but more likely that an isp at your end or the other end have a max
6mb limit for mail.
Any bigger and you should really be ftp'ing or using snail mail (heaven
forbid).
Why has it got to be 10M?

Great Plains 9 RestoreHi,
I am trying to upgrade from great plains 9 to great plains 9 sp2.
So, we have setup up a test server where I have installed GP 9 and restored
the data.
At the moment I am just reading the KB923671 from customer source and one of
the prequisites that you need to do before installing the service pack deals
with Reports.dic and Forms.dic
My question is when you install GP on such a scanario does one have to
copy/restore the Reports.dic and Forms.dic files from the live system [or
from the backups].
Or are they irrelevant?
Thanks

No changes for either account of any seeming relevance preceded the loss of

OutputDebugString to a file???Hello all
Is it possible to redirect all the output of OutputDebugString to a
flat file? I am thinking of creating a listener that captures the
output (from OutputDebugString fn.) from my app and writes them to a

Googled results in some .NET listeners, however my requirement is for
VC++ app.
any pointers would be much appreciated

.net xml file for ExcelHi I have a .net web application and am trying to create an xml file to be
opened in Excel on the client machine. I am placing data from a dataset into
a text document so I think this is the correct approach. I printed out a
small sample excel file saved as xml and noticed several tags near the top
such as Workbook xmlns = "". I am using the xmlwriter, does it have all of
this built in or should I just create a string and write it to the text file
before entering the elements that represent the data I want for each cell?
thanks.

Unalbe to open 2003 file with 2007 beta 2I have a website I built with Publisher 2003. I installed 2007 beta 2, and
now I can't open the 2003 file. It says the file has an error. I followed the
instructions in the KB for file recognition, and it still won't open the 2003
file. I like 2007, but don't want to recreate all of the work I did in 2003.
I would have talked you out of using the beta for a website. You can't be
certain what changes will occur between now and the released version.
