Attempting to reuse a script and running into Problems.
Reflection is 6.00
Script works fine on my HP3000 927.
The GetUserName gets the Windows UserName from Windows and uses it in the HP
Hello
as a SessionName so the string passed in the Hello command is
MyUserName,MANAGER.SYS

On the new A400 I get the following feedback in the Reflection screen :
MPE/iX:hello Seamus,MANAGER.SYS
Name greater than 8 characters long. (CIERR 1435)
MPE/iX:

What's causing the error 1435 ?
TIA
Seamus
