AW: why can't I create a folder with a variable?

I found out it's not a problem of having a variable or a constant, but
either the depth of path or the number of chars of the folder to be created
not in the currentDirectory but"C:/foo/foo/foo".
Does anybody know of these restrictions on Win XP?
Thanks
Tiemo
