As long as your loading using the exact filename (i.e. don't use context markers), and you're using Mathematica 2.2.2 or above, this should work fine. Where did you put the file at? Is it in the $Path somewhere? Try doing FileNames["*"] to see if the file shows up in your file listing (remembering, of course, that FileNames["*"] looks only in your current directory).

E.G. when you unzip a file called Hyperbolic.m , under Win95 its lonf file name remains the same but its DOS name becomes HYPERB~1.M; and when you try to load it by issueing <<Hyperbolic.m , you got a "$fail open" message. Any way to solve this little problem ?
