   Not sure exactly which conference to pos this is, but I've noticed a problem    
   with the longname file support that is giving my organization fits.  We use    
   filenames such as 55_AWhite.cup.car  Notice there are 2 periods in the file    
   name.  Well, WinServer wants to insert it's own [1] instead so the filename    
   looks like 55_AWhite[1].cup.car  Well, that means that everytime someone    
   downloads a file, they have to change the name of it.. not good, since it is    
   vital that everyone running our program must have the SAME filenames on each    
   computer.  Also, if you leave a space in the name, WinServer wants to insert    
   a "+" sign upon download.  Also, not good.  Is there anyway to get these    
   problems fixed?  It's causing us all kinds of trouble and I'd hate to have to    
   look for another software package, being a dedicated Wildcat user since V.3   
      
   Than you for your time...
