I have the following statement in my CLOPTSET:

Not really enough information here to give you a definitive answer.

Sure there is.

Instead of

       EXCLUDE *:\...\documents and settings\...\usrclass.dat

try

       EXCLUDE *:\...\usrclass.dat

I bet it's that nasty space-in-the-directory-name business.

Mark,

The two excludes are not equivalent!  Yours would exclude any file named
"usrclass.dat" regardless of drive or directory, where as the original
only wishes to exclude "usrclass.dat" if there is a "documents and
settings" subdirectory in the path to the file.  It may be suffucent for
his needs but its different.

The space in the directory name could be the problem if it is not
quoted.  However, I still maintain without seeing the full
include/exclude list there is not enough info.  Suppose there is an
"include *.dat" line that gets processed first, then the exclude is
irrelevent.
