Interesting - I just tried it on a 2000 box (at work)and it at least warned me that I couldn't rename the file - wonder why XP doesn't?

When I pass this string into a REAL SQL database connection

DBCursor = me.SQLSelect("select count(*) from Users Where UserName = 'gerard')

I get this db.errormessage

"not an error"

And when I try to name (or rename) a new, blank bitmap file on the desktop to "con.bmp", it changes it back to New Bitmap Image.bmp - that's 'not an error' either :) But it's definitely a bug! I can name it "coon.bmp", or "conn.bmp", but it stringently resists my attempts to name the file "con.bmp" - weird...
