OrgWiz "File does not exist"

[rschaeferhig]

When I run a simple OrgWiz command from the command line (Visio 2003) I get
"File does not exist". Here's the command:

orgwiz.exe /FILENAME=vorg.xls /NAME-FIELD=Name /MANAGER-FIELD=ReportsTo
/UNIQUEID-FIELD=Position

I even went so far as to open a Command Prompt in the directory where
OrgWiz is located, copy vorg.xls there, and then run the command in that
directory.

Any ideas?

You may need to provide a full path name. I'm not sure what directory the
wizard assumes the file comes from. However, note that there is a 128
character limit to the command string.

I ended up with:

orgwiz.exe /FILENAME="C:\vorg.xls" /NAME-FIELD=Name /MANAGER-FIELD=RpTo
/UNIQUEID-FIELD=Pos

I had to use double-quotes for the name and I had to shorten the command
string to meet the limit. Unfortunately this method is useless since the
command string limitation prevents me from specifying the DISPLAY-FIELDS
and PAGES/PAGENAMES operands that I wanted to use to customize the chart.

What's the point of having all those operands on the command if you can
only specify 100 characters????
