Thanks Walter, Bill and Richard for the suggestions.  I will try 
the diffent techniques for specifying the variable filename and 
post ny findings.  (I'll have access again to that system 
shortly.)  The code that I posted is running fine on Unix (fp 5.14).  

If this does wind up solving the problem, does anyone know if 
it would be from a difference between Windows and Unix or 
would it be from a difference in the filepro version 
(5.07 vs. 5.14)?
