AppPath in PBCGI.INC using IIS/6.0 returns \\?\

[Mike Doty]

Microsoft's server returns the 4 extra characters above before the path.
Not sure if this is common in all versions of Microsoft servers.

Is there a common function to test for this?
Abyss correctly returns the path.

Kludge: can't use 4 characters in this posting

LOCAL ThePath AS STRING
ThePath = AppPath
IF LEFT$(ThePath,4) = "those 4 characters" THEN
  ThePath = MID$(ThePath,5)
END IF

I see the same thing (I'm also using IIS 6).
I use the kludge method.

Thanks for checking.
