Hi All,

I found somewhere examples of valid pathnames for calling PC programs by
STRPCCMD.
Example for calling EXCEL:
'C:\Progra~1\micros~1\office\excel.exe'.
Such pathnames may differ from one the the other PC environment.
My question: Where can I find explanations on the syntax of this shortened
pathnames? E.g. what does ~1 stand for?

Many thanks in advance.
