It seems to me that if you're asking PUTFILE() to put up a dialog showing only files of extensions "XLS" but you give it a default name that doesn't have the XLS, well, I can understand why it might be confused. Windows does such a poor job of optionally showing file extensions. What version of Windows are you running? Does the Window explorer usually show extensions? when I issue: ? PUTFILE("Custom text","text with spaces in the filename","XLS") it displays and returns "text with spaces in the filename.XLS" if I CD to a network drive and repeat the test, I see the same result. I'm running VFP 9.0, version(4) says "09.00.0000.5815" Perhaps you've already addressed this in the message thread, but I didn't see it: there's a colon in the original file name. That won't work for me, or likely on Windows, I get an "Invalid path or filename" error.
