Hi Werner, the ~1 is a continous suffix. It's is generated from any MS-OS for the 8.3 name. Therefore the number depends on the order in the directory. Be careful if you transfer scripts between PCs.

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.
