Via the GUI.
Its is a common problem here as being in Greece most of my students have
some Greek characters in the path where they try to access data or Gretl

[image: Inline image 1]

Thanks, Periklis. So -- just to be sure I've got the context right -- this occurs when using, say, the

/File/Open data/User file

menu item?  And if so, how far do you get? Are you able to select the target file, but then on clicking "OK" or whatever you get that error message?
