I have a batch file that I call via VBA shell command. This batch file refers to a folder on the server. One character of the folder name contains a character with an umlaut. This doesn't work for a batch file called through Access! In addition, the folder name is called via a variable. Can this problem be solved?
* Name of the variable "MasterFilePad"
* Folder name: "\\ antwerpen.local \ ..... \ 01_02_03_Coördinatiegroep_Strategie \ SBI-op \ Updaten". Without an umlaut it works fine!
 
On the PC, map a drive letter to the folder. (This will include the umlat)
Then in code , import the filename via,

Z: \filename.cvs
 
I don't think this is possible because some clients logon remotely (from different locations in Antwerp) and I don't know which map letters they use on their servers.
