With this parameter set, CF will see that 'movie.wmv' already exists and change the name of the next file to 'movie1.wmv' or some other string that does not currently exist in the file system. It will then inform you of what the new file name is in the 'file.ServerFileName' structure key. It will also tell you if a rename was done in the 'file.FileWasRenamed' structure key.
