Thanks Charles,
The FileName was being retreived from a Journal Entry when a file was
created in an IFS folder.
It appears that the FileName was being returned as a Null Terminated String.
I stripped the Null out using %STR and it is working now.

As I suspected:

Eval FileName :c =

Eval FileName :x =

4BC3E2E5 00000000 00000000 00000000 - .CSV............

x'0013' = 19

INVC2012040501.CSV

Is only 18 characters...

So where's FileName comming from?
