Without seeing code, the list will be guessing. As fully as you defined the setup for the writing of the file, then you will need to qualify that much to do the rename.

What does the error say? ( ie, if ( ! rename(old,new) ) { print $! } )

Wags ;) ps a code snippet portion is almost a must for people to repsond.

Subject: renaming files in XP

Hi!

I am using version 5.8.7 on XP Pro. I am trying a very simple thing, that is I am trying to rename a file “rename $old_name, $new_name”. I know this a not biggie but what am I doing wrong.

I am not local directory that I am changing the file, is this the problem?

Thanks,

Jerry
