CASPA ini error in Win 7

[SeagoMac]

We have CASPA a data analysis program that runs of a server share and is accessed by a shortcut on the teachers desktop. It had been working fine however now when you run it it opens the CASPA splash screen but reports an error " The CASPA.INI file cannot be found."

 

If I open up the share and double click on the CASPA.exe to run it I get the same error.

 

I can't understand why it can't find it as the ini file is in the same folder as the CASPA.exe and I have checked that all the permissions are correct. I can open the ini file from the share so the permissions should be fine.

 

This must be an Win 7 problem as it works fine on an old XP machine.

 

Anyone else had this problem and solved it or have any ideas why this is happening?
