Disk Full Error when exporting excel reports???

I've created a VB application that creates 4 different RDC reports for each id field in one of my database tables. It then exports each report to an excel file. It was working fine but I'm suddenly encountering a "disk full" error when ever it goes to export one of the reports. Trouble is the disk is no where near full. I had been getting this error before but what I rebooted it went away. It was like the system couldn't see the disk space available. Now though, rebooting won't help. Does anyone have any tips as to how I can overcome this??? Any assistance would be appreciated greatly.

Thanks a lot,

We are having the identical problem here. Does anyone have any idea to why this is happening? any help would be appreciated. thanks!
 
That happens when the app tries to write to the root of the drive. The resulting attempts can exceed the maximum number of entries in the root: hence the full disk error message.

Search your app for the string ":\".

Make sure that something follows the backslash "\".
