This is Yasuhisa Matsumura, again.
PS.  Please let me add some information to the previous mail ('Open File Error?')  of mine.

On Japanese Windows, you cannot create any file with a filename that includes the so called backslash '\\' (= [92]),
but you CAN create a file with such a Japanese filename the character codes for which include the backslash code [92] as its subpart.
 
  For example:  you CANNOT directly create a file with the filename 'abc\d.txt'.
  But you CAN create a file with the filename '表.txt'.
  The character code list for '表.txt' is [149,92 | ".txt"].
 
Unfortunately, we have lots of such 2-byte characters that include [92].
The preceding code (=149 in the above example) directly before the backslash code [92] is always greater than (>) 128 in the Japanese system.
