batch file doesn't work on winXP_pro machine

content batch file:
Link86  & < filename.ltx

content filename:
..\source\test1.obj, &
..\source\test2.obj, &
..\source\test3.obj, &
..\source\test4.obj, &
..\source\test5.obj, &
..\source\test6.obj, &
..\source\test7.obj, &
..\source\test8.obj, &
..\source\test9.obj, &
..\source\test10.obj, &
..\source\test11.obj, &
..\source\test12.obj, &
..\source\test13.obj, &
..\source\test14.obj, &
..\source\test15.obj, &

..\source\test17.obj, &
..\source\test18.obj, &
..\source\test19.obj, &
..\source\test20.obj  &
TO outputfile.lnk

This construction works oke on WIN98, but on WIN_XP_PRO I receive the message "Syntax of command is incorrect"

Can someone tell me what goed wrong here ...
