THere were some revisions of CVSNT that did this when exporting modules with subdirectories if I remember correctly. But this got fixed as soon as it was discovered. So if you use the latest CVSNT you should be fine. Remember that export will never overwrite an existing file and it will also not like it if a directory it wants to create already exists. So you should really export only to an empty folder. /Bo (Bo Berglund, developer in Sweden)
