SYMPTOM(s):
The specified path is invalid.
Using UNC names
Doing a Copy or Output to a share device on the network
** Unable to open file: <file-name>. Errno=<number>. (98)
** Unable to open file: <file-name>. Errno=13. (98)
SYSTEM ERROR: fmget: bad record or unknown value. (13)
CAUSE:
UNC consists of \\COMPUTERNAME\SHARENAME.
In a network with Novell it might be that a specific printer is set up in a specified tree and the UNC can be mistaken for: \\TREENAME\PRINTERNAME. Since this does not conform to the UNC standard, you will get the error 98.
FIX:
Firstly check that the UNC name is correct using the following steps:
1. Open a Command box from the Start Menu --> Run --> command
2. Copy a text file to the same UNC used in the Progress program. NT should report back the following error: "The specified path is invalid."
In this case the name of the computer holding the tree and printer should be used.
