If I remember correctly (it's been a long time), DOS knows when you're trying to access a device by looking at the *basename* (minus path and extension) of the file. As of MS-DOS 6.22, the list of reserved names was AUX, COM{1,2,3,4}, CON, LPT{1,2,3}, NUL and PRN. I'm not sure what the list is in the various incarnations of Windows, nor if it's set in stone (could new reserved names be added by loading drivers ?). -- André Majorel <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://www.teaser.fr/~amajorel/
