I checked this out, and I got a very strange result: ignoring the long extension, DOS type filenames got me two blank pages: 2001.psiword opens three windows: Untitled1 Untitled2 2001.psiword filenames too long for DOS got the same result 2001-08-03.psiword gets Untitled1 Untitled2 2001-08-03.psiword But, and here's the weird part, if you break a filename up with spaces, you get an *extra* blank window for every space. 2001-08 03.psiword gets Untitled1 Untitled2 Untitled3 2001-08 03.psiword 2001 08 03.psiword gets Untitled1 Untitled2 Untitled3 Untitled4 2001 08 03.psiword Two spaces in a row don't seem to make any difference: 2001 08 03.psiword gets Untitled1 Untitled2 Untitled3 Untitled4 2001 08 03.psiword All this seems dependent on the long file extension. Creating a new file type with the extension .pwd opens only the one window, no matter what the rest of the filename looks like. - Nick Gunz p.s. a description of the registry fix would actually be very welcome ----------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe from this list, send a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word unsubscribe in the message body.
