Short Path issue with Exchange Server 2007

Hi All,

We have installed the latest Exchange Server 2007 software (free download). We have observed that after installing Exchange Server 2007, the GetShortPathName() Win32 API is not working.

The GetShortPathName() API is returning the long path instead of the short path. We have even used the FileSystemObject from VB to do this but the result is same.

What we can observe here is it is returning the long path name always and without returning any error values.

We are facing a serious issues with this. Because our application that uses short paths is not working completely.

Please help me.

Regards,
Mahesh
