Out of curiosity, but this is C++, and is not a backslash in a string
in C++ an escape character, hence things like
"\temp\i\otrq92rq40100__db1003.xls" should actually be
"\\temp\\i\\otrq92rq40100__db1003.xls", and since
"\temp\i\otrq92rq40100__db1003.xls" was turning into
"empiotrq92rq40100__db1003.xls", is that not correct since the
backslashes were not escaped?  Hence, this problem has *nothing* to do
with Boost and everything to do with forgetting to escape the escape
character?  :)
