... which means that instead of getting a "syntax error" in filePro, you'll 
simply end up with an invalid filename.

(USERPROFILE includes the drive letter, so you can't preface it with "\". 
And, if it didn't include a drive letter, you would now have a filename that 
starts with "\\", which in all likelihood would also be a failure.)
