What's "windows"? :) On Mac OS X and Solaris and Linux, this rule is true and even on Windows it can actually remember the MixedCase names (even if a long-standing bug in Windows causes it to ignore differences in case :) If you care about portability - or the possibility of future platform changes, you need to follow the rule. And that's what standards are all about: ensuring portability and platform independence. Of course, if you're forever wedded to one proprietary platform, you can do what you want with filenames ;) Sean A Corfield -- http://www.corfield.org/blog/ "If you're not annoying somebody, you're not really alive." -- Margaret Atwood ---------------------------------------------------------- You are subscribed to cfcdev.
