Hi Everyone, A while ago I posted about problems with long filenames and the make that comes with the WorkSet/2 stuff. Someone suggested that I get the new make from hobbes (under .../2.0/programming), which I did. Well, it still dies, and with the same error message too. I've posted it here (sorry for the wrapping, but that can't be helped) so y'all can see what I mean. How do I go about getting NMAKE to recognize long filenames? I guess it's not critical, but long filenames are great for descriptive purposes, and I'd like to use them. After all, my drive is formatted HPFS for a reason... Thanks in advance for any help (I get the feeling this will be a simple one). ------------ BEGIN ERROR MESSGAE ----------------- Invocation of <NMAKE.EXE> begins Invocation string: /f SYSTEM.MAK <ÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄÄ> Microsoft (R) Program Maintenance Utility Version 1.01 Copyright (c) Microsoft Corp 1988-1989.
