Visio Viewer 2003 2007 Browser integrated can't use apostrophe

[Peter Vandermeulen Hexion]

Does anyone has a sollution for this problem:
We have a lot of visio files that need to be viewed by users. They are
located in a folder structure like:
\\server\share\items\VP's\visio\....
\\server\share\items\MP's\visio\....
\\server\share\items\IP's\visio\....

As you can see, for historical reasons we van some folders names VP's,
IP's,...
Now the viewer in the browser can't open these files: Could not open URL.
If we copy the files to a dir where there are no ', it works fine.
Can anyone help me?

The apostrophe is a reserved character in URLs, try replacing it with
the encoding %27
\\server\share\items\VP%27s\visio\....

I tried replacing it but that does not help.

Are you sure the ' characters are apostrophes and not intelligent
quote characters?
Also, how are you linking to the pages, the ' character could be
delimiting the URL.
