Ritu, Rather than changing the property can you just move/rename the file? WebDav has the concept of "live" properties that are dynamic and cannot be edited. It might be that DAV:displayname isn't modifiable.
-James >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 6/11/2004 9:41:05 AM >>> I apologize if I am inconveniencing by reposting this mail. I would really appreciate if someone could please let me know whether I can modify the DAV:displayname property of a collection. Ideally I expected the displayname to be a modifiable property but proppatch is not overwriting that property instead it is creating a new displayname property with empty namespace. I can use this displayname with my custom namespace, but this would require me to make one additional propfind call after getting the resource using WebdavResource. I would like to avoid this additional call per resource when doing getChildResources. Any reply would be greatly appreciated.

I tried using: *proppatch("collectionPath", new PropertyName("DAV:","displayname"), "newName", true)* But this method created a new property "displayname" with empty namespace instead of modifying the "DAV:displayname" property. Could anyone please tell me what is the expected behavior?
