Maybe you should take into account that on Linux a filename can be less thatn 5 characters (because there is no extension). And even on Win based OS you can still have a filename shorter than 5 characters. I think that the following code is more appropriate: <CFIF Trim(name) neq "." AND Trim(name) neq ".."> ..#name#... <CFELSE> we have a false directory </CFIF> Mack. > > Tony > > -----Original Message----- > From: Bruce Sorge [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Saturday, January 12, 2002 3:04 PM > To: CF-Talk > Subject: Re: ANother CFDirectory question > > > Ahh.
