quick and easy fix

[t0ddie]

i want to rename 1.txt to 2.txt using the dos command ren

its in the c:\ directory.. and when i open up the command prompt..its at c:\Documents and Settings\Toddie

what do i need to change on this.. to get it to the c:\ directory in the prompt.

otherwise, it cant find the file specified

RunWait(@ComSpec & 'ren 1.txt 2.txt',@SW_HIDE)

thanks!

Why don't you just use FileMove() to rename it?

[t0ddie]

i dunno, never thought of that.

i just remembered the change directory command though. cd c:\

so, how would i do it the filemove way?

would it be like filemove('c:\1.txt', 'c:\2.txt') ???

oh CRAP!! that worked.. nice

thanks valik!
