limitation in the path + filename length
 
We have encountered a strange situation; it seems MS Excel has a limitation
in the path + filename length. We conducted some tests and got conflicting
results, for example on my machine I was able to save with filenames of max
150 characters while on colleagues machine around 200 characters. We did not
find any authoritative documentation on the subject.



Can you please help?

"Filename Is Not Valid" Error Saving or Opening File

was all I ran across.
