And if you declare iDir = \\machine\folder\<file:///\\machine\folder\>?
The extra \ at the end of the line should provide a fully qualified UNC path.

Thank you in advance,

Hi,

It's not even getting to that line because it does not see the directory at INPUT FROM OS-DIR (cDir) ECHO.

Are you able to verify that you added the '\' to the path like this:
FILE-INFO:FILE-NAME = iDir + "\" + cFileStream.

Is this possible to do in a BPM with a folder that is a network share? I have this bit of code but keeps turning up "<directory>" not found. Has anyone accomplished this, it works if i specify a local drive for iDir but does not work if iDir is a network location (\\computer\fileshare<file:///\\computer\fileshare>)

Thanks,

-Ted

DEF VAR cFileStream AS CHARACTER NO-UNDO.

INPUT FROM OS-DIR(iDir) ECHO.

REPEAT:
IMPORT cFileStream.
FILE-INFO:FILE-NAME = iDir + cFileStream.
MESSAGE cFileStream.

END.

permissions issue with network share?
is the service account that the progress appserver runs under a domain account?

Yes, the user who has access to the appservers is the domain admin account. I connected to our test database with Data Administrator and created the same script in the procedure editor and it works fine.
