Message: [QUOTE="jkn, post: 2045996"] Hi there Thanks for the comments. I see that I actually confused myself a bit with my posting. It's been a while and I mistook the use of '/' as a platform-independent directory delimiter with the use of '\\'. I also thought that I was seeing something similar on Windows and Linux. This may not be the case ;-o. So, to try again. It looks as it the attempt to open a non-existent file (for instance, because the parent folder does not exist) gives an odd error on Linux but not on Windows. (replacing the '\' with '/' gives the same message, which is what I was trying to convey) On Linux, you get the 'Bad mode' error. Strange?! Jon N [/QUOTE]
