Hello,

I recently started with a client that is using the JAVA WEB Start tool and
Sterling Commerce's Business Process Modeler (BPM); which when downloaded
tries to create a directory name that starts with a dot. This is not an
issue for Windows 2000. However, Windows XP will not recognize or allow the
creation of a \.file so I am not able to load the program and do the work
for my client until a solution is found. Does anyone know a work around?

Cheers,
David Medina

Create it under a Command Prompt like so:

md c:\.abc
