Autoload FAS file

    I am trying to autoload a fas file using the following definition in acaddoc.lsp:

    (autoload "pwb.fas" '("pwb"))

    Basically, this works on most of the computers on our network except for two which return the following error:

    ; error: open file error: F:\PREC\Dardo_LISP\pwb.fas

    I have checked the path and it is ok. I also tried to appload the fas file at the problem machines, and while the dialogue box tells me the file was loaded successfully, when I click ok, the error reappears and I can't run the file.

    Does anyone have any ideas as to what could be the problem? I am using A2K and windows XP.

  2. Can you type (load "pwb.fas") on the 2 computers and load the programs by
    hand?
    If not, make sure the 2 computers have "F:\PREC\Dardo_LISP" in the Support
    File Search Path.

    You might want to check the Network Mapping of 'F:' drive on the two problem stations.
    Also check if the user profile allows for read/exe privledges.

    Alan,
    <snip> error: open file error: F:\PREC\Dardo_LISP\pwb.fas<snip>
    implies that the 'pointer' to the F:\...is there, just can't load it..
