bulk insert error

The directory and file is there nothing wrong with the network drive
Can anyone tell me how to resolve this error?

Could not bulk insert because file ' K:\Apps\orderlog\APAPORD1.txt ' could not be opened. Operating system error code 123(The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect.).

The usual problem I have run into with this is that the drive where the txt file resides may not be mapped the same way at the Server where SQL resides as on my dev box.  Have you tried using the UNC name of the drive rather than a mapped drive letter?
