Kevin,

I suppose that the directory "e:\math3\AddOns\Applications" is not on
Mathematica's package search path. To let Mathematica find your package, add
the following line to your kernel's init.m file, or execute this command
first before attempting to load UVW`DataRep`:

PrependTo[$Path, "e:\\math3\\AddOns\\Applications"]

Best regards,

  Eckhard
