Thanks for the pointers guys.
The revised code (it works) is:
$fp2 = "C:\\inetpub\\wwwroot\\packtracker\\LSE\\".$cr.".txt";
if (!$fp2 = fopen($fp2, 'w')) {
print "Cannot open the bloody file ($fp2)";
exit;
}
if (!fwrite($fp2, $content)) {
print "Cannot write to file ($fp2)";
exit;
}
fclose($fp2);
rename($cr.".txt",$cr.".doc");
It may be of use to someone else.
Cheers
George
