if u observe ur physical path

Physical path:/usr/sap/<SYSID>/SYS/global/<FILENAME>.TXT

usr -->user

sap

sysid-->system id...

hence these things r coming in ur output...

in ur physical path give

C:\tmp\<FILENAME>

Hope it helps,

Make sure that you don't have more than one logical filepaths with the same name ZTEST but having different syntax groups(operating system)

In your physical filename, you already used '.TXT'.

Why did you use that again in your physical path after <FILENAME>?

If I look at your example FILE_GET_NAME should have given you '/usr/sap/<SYSID>/SYS/global/TSPAR_20060316.TXT'. But you said you are getting '
ctrides.caritor.com\.....'. So your path and file name both are wrong. Isn't that true?
