Richard Robertson Posted March 28, 2010 Posted March 28, 2010 Are you referring to using the file functions with symbols that you aren't allowed to use in a Windows Path? You can't. They aren't allowed.

PhilHibbs Posted March 29, 2010 Posted March 29, 2010 How to assign file name with not allowed symbols using C#?Do you mean "symbols not allowed in a file name" or "symbols not allowed in C#"?
Richard Robertson Posted March 29, 2010 Posted March 29, 2010 Do you mean "symbols not allowed in a file name" or "symbols not allowed in C#"?Considering any file name symbols would be in a string, I don't know how it could run into issues with C# as a language.
PhilHibbs Posted March 29, 2010 Posted March 29, 2010 Considering any file name symbols would be in a string, I don't know how it could run into issues with C# as a language.I suppose - the only symbols that you'd have a problem with in C# would be \ and " which are not allowed in files either.
Richard Robertson Posted March 29, 2010 Posted March 29, 2010 (edited) I suppose - the only symbols that you'd have a problem with in C# would be \ and " which are not allowed in files either.You clearly have never heard of escape codes.http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa691090%28VS.71%29.aspx Edited March 29, 2010 by Richard Robertson
PhilHibbs Posted March 29, 2010 Posted March 29, 2010 You clearly have never heard of escape codes.Not true, I was merely asking if the OP was having trouble with C#.
Richard Robertson Posted March 30, 2010 Posted March 30, 2010 Not true, I was merely asking if the OP was having trouble with C#.Chalk that one up to English failing as a language then. It sounded to me as if you didn't understand escape codes.
