Default UNC Path length problem opening a file in excel 2002 or 2003

I've had several of my users that can't open an excel file when the UNC path
length gets close to 220 characters. The UNC points to a 2003 server. This
happens if you try to open using windows explorer or using the OPEN command
in excel.

Only excel is giving us problems. Word and other programs work just fine.

I can't find anything in the knowledge base. Has anyone else seen this
problem?

Thanks
John

Take out the "_ r e m o v e" from the address.
