Hi, Keith,
I have found that Windows accepts the spelling of the My Documents folder as
\mydocu~1 (that is: m y d o c u tilde 1).
Give that a try.

Duxbury 10.4 on Win98. Which version of SWIFT do I need? The version of
Office is 97. Does the version of Word matter? I can get the pull down
menu to pop up, but it keeps saying that it can not find or load my. I
think it is saying my is because it is running into a space in the folder
name c:\my documents.

other folders, but I don't see where to do it now. I changed Word's default
folder to C:\mydocuments with no space in the folder name. Is there a
better way of doing this?
