I don't know that it's that spaces are considered *EVIL*, of and by themself. However, spaces in filenames can lead to Bad Things(TM). They tend to break a lot of scripts and cause many headaches. In the case that started this thread, I wanted to take the spaces out of filenames of mp3s because I have a system that builds a catalog and streams the songs from a web server. Spaces break this particular program. C-Ya, Kenny -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Tact is just *not* saying true stuff" -- Cordelia Chase Kenneth E.
