Dave,

Thanks about information. I checked the Tools Guide and made the following quick test
 ... and it works!

var myFile = File("~/Desktop/MyFolder/presentName.txt");
myFile.rename("newName.txt");		
newName = myFile.name ;
alert(newName);

var myFolder = Folder("~/Desktop/MyFolder/Items/");
fileList= myFolder.getFiles();
myFileName = fileList[0].name ;
alert(myFileName);

Thank you very much, Dave!

regards

Erkki
