Hi;

I have the following line in a function:

Shell "print /d:\NEPCOPQ2 c:tempmsg.txt"

Which works just fine in XL2002 running on W2K. However, in XL97 on W95, it yields 'File not found.' I know it's there, I can see it right in the C:directory.

Anyone have any ideas??

Thanks in advance,
Aron
 

Excel Facts

Return population for a City
If you have a list of cities in A2:A100, use Data, Geography. Then =A2.Population and copy down.
I don't understand the code and I think this is way off but C:\ ? not C: ?
Probably doesn't help but you are at the top of the list now!
