I would go further and recommend that people *never* use special characters in file names, not even _ if you can avoid it. Some of them have meanings to other entities (like the shells, which don't like spaces in file names, which is a WINDOWS thing anyway). With _ this is a new oddity I haven't seen before, but leading underscores are often interpreted specially by various applications, so I'm not too surprised. Aren't letters and numbers enough? :-) Mark -- E-mail to [email protected] for instructions on how to unsubscribe List archives are available at http://www.libreoffice.org/lists/users/ All messages you send to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
