I could not find `Win32::GetShortPathName($fullpath);` But I've knocked up this which seems to work `use Win32::API; sub GetShortPathName { my $GetShortPathName = new Win32::API('kernel32', 'GetShortPathName +A', 'PPN', 'N'); die "Can't import API GetShortPathNameA:\n$!" unless defined $GetSh +ortPathName; my $longpath = shift; my $length = 1 + length $longpath; my $shortpath = ' ' x ($length); $length = $GetShortPathName->Call($longpath, $shortpath, $length); return substr($shortpath, 0, $length); }` [download]	[reply] [d/l] [select]

I could not find Win32::GetShortPathName($fullpath); What does that mean? Win32::GetShortPathName has been available since perl 5.6	[reply]
