   Look at HELP on rename.   
      
   You need to use a filesystem type to rename.  And you need to   
   findfirst() on it, I believe.   
      
   That is in addition to the colon for alias that Dennis mentioned.   
      
   Something like:   
      
   stFile="drive:\\path\\subpath\\currentname.xls"   
   stNewFile="drive:\\path\\subpath\\newname.xls"   
      
   if fs.findfirst(stFile) then   
     fs.rename(stFile,stNewFile)   
   endif   
      
   Although you may have to have the files in the :work: directory and   
   may not be able to specify path.  Try it and see, and let us know your   
   results if you would.   
      
   Don't expect direct e-mail responses.  You need to visit here and   
   retrieve any responses.  Not to mention that you are likely signing up   
   to be SPAMmed by posting a real e-mail address in the clear as you   
   have.
