I think you are right. When a WMF file is exported to the root folder
C:\ there is no problem. However, why does the path length not affect
export to EMF, PNG, PS, or EPS format? And why does Stata return the
full path only when WMF or EMF files are exported?
. graph export 1234567890123456789012.wmf
