Contents could also refer to a Collection. -- Roedy Green Canadian Mind Products http://mindprod.com Windows is a case-insensitive operating system, but that does not mean you can forget about case. For example, Let us assume you have a file called Abc.txt in C:\temp, and a file called aBc.txt in D:\temp and you type copy C:\temp\abC.txt D:\temp. What is the name of the file in D:\temp when you are done? 1) Abc.txt 2) aBc.txt 3) abC.txt 4) abc.txt 5) ABC.txt Hint, the answer rhymes with the most popular word in advertising.
