Hi, Forewarning to those who have yet to install 8.1i and who use core generator. Hard to believe I know, but don't use a space in your 8.1i install path otherwise you _may_ have problems running core generator. (I certainly did.).

Here is the relevant answer record, scroll down to solution 2.

I don't know if 8.x still does it, but in previous versions when trying to load projects with spaces in the path name, it would actually give you an error mesage telling you that it did not support spaces. IIRC, Windows has had long path name support for about 11 years.
