Any way to get around the 255 character limit in a File-Open URL or External
Data Query?

I don't have any control over the length of the URL (which happens to be 257
characters). Does 2007 have this same problem?

Here is my URL breakdown, if someone can test this out for me:
format, 7 character: "http://"
server, 25 character: "intranet_svr.company.com/"
path, 5 character: "path/"
filename, 12 character: "csvlist.cgi?"
querypart, 208 characters:
"columnlist=field1,field2,field3,field4,...&"
"field1=somevalue,field2=...&"
"outputtype=csv"

Amazing how quickly those characters can get used up, but they do.

Any way to configure the filename limit?
