We have been using STRPCCMD to display PDF files in the IFS. Works great.

Just had a user create a PDF file that contained an & in the PDF file name
(P&L statement.PDF)



When using STRPCPCM to display this file we get an error. It appears the
STRPCCMD is stopping at the & character

STRPCCMD PCCMD('"\\192.168.2.60\ACCT\P&L 10-16-2009.PDF"') PAUSE(*NO)



Generates an error:

'L' is not recognized as an internal or external command



If I rename the file by changing the P&L to PNL everything works fine

I tried enclosing the & in quotes and that did not help



Any ideas?





Thanks



John
