AMIS and networked books

in

I can't seem to open daisy books that are stored on our local (microsoft 2003) network
If I copy the book to my local PC the book opens OK

Is it a permission thing on the server share? (user have read permissions)
If it is is there a way to allow AMIS to write to a , local, temporary folder?

Here's the relevant bit from the log file:

Answering own question!

It will work if I use a MAPPED network drive

So...Is there anyway to make AMIS work with UNC paths?

Hi Andy, AMIS does not

Hi Andy,

AMIS does not process Windows networking file path syntax. It can handle the syntax of local file paths and URLs, so mapping a network drive to a local drive letter will work, as you have seen.
