2 Ways to Rename a file, please help!

[George1111]

2) Hide the (U) within the list box somehow?

Presumably you are using a command like List1.Additem FileName, so why cant you check for the "U" or whatever, prior to adding it to the list ?



If you are actually trying to get rid of the offending files then, for a one off solution to problems like yours, I normally turn to DOS

ie, Start, Run, CMD, OK

here you can do things like

REN *U.* *.* (renames and file ending with U to same name, but dropping the U )

or

DEL *U.* (deletes any file ending with U)

I am not sure exactly what you are trying to do, but DOS sounds like a quick fix to me

(Make sure you have backups of all your files in case you mess them up !)
