More accurately it no longer cares. some file system drivers impose some limitations but generally speaking NT views "FRED.DOC" as an eight character name and has no concept of 'extensions'. The shell OTOH may still regard an extension as something special and I don't know to how it reacts to extensions with more than three characters. -- Andrue Cope [TeamB] [Bicester, Uk] http://info.borland.com/newsgroups/guide.html
