FSSpec on Windows -- Help!

I've searched the archive and haven't found this specific answer. Apologies if I missed it.

I'm trying to create an FSSpec on Windows XP. I've tried both NativePathNameToFSSpec and FSMakeFSSpec with no luck

Here is a sample of the code:
/***************SAMPLE********************/
OSErr err=noErr;
char *file;
FSSpec ImportedFile;
char pathName[255]; // Buffer for pathname

file="c:\\tt.mov";
strcpy(pathName, file);

StringPtr pFileName = QTUtils_ConvertCToPascalString(file); //this successfully converts to a Pascal string
err = FSMakeFSSpec (0, 0L, pFileName, &ImportedFile); //this returns error -2095
/***************END***OF***SAMPLE********************/

The pFileName string pointer holds the proper value (a Pascal string of the full file name and path), but the FSSpec gets these values:

vRefNum: -13108
parID: -858993460
name: empty string (looks like IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII etc.)

What's going on here? InitializeQTML and EnterMovies are called without error in my main procedure, so I'm not sure what err -2095 is trying to tell me.


Thanks in advance,

Ron
