I suspect that the *String option is doing exactly what you ask but the
null will be in byte 51 and it may be that opendir doesn't like trailing
blanks - or it does but can't find a directory with spaces in the name.
Your code should %TrimR the Pathname when using it as a parm. In all of
your other examples (apart from what I assume is an erroneous repeat of the
OpenDir( PathName ) which didn't work, the compiler will have null
terminated the string following the last significant character.  In the
case where you added a null "by hand" you would have had two of them.
