I have a script running on Ruby 1.9.1 on Windows 7

I've distilled my script down to

File.open("????.txt")

and still can't get it to work. I know there are issues with Ruby 1.9 filename handling on windows (Using the Windows ANSI library), but would be happy enough with a work around that is callable from Ruby
