Brian, This is not directly connected with your specific inquiry, but I would draw attention to the fact that should one wish to put folders and files on the web the frequently will not work if they contain a space. This also applies to URLs. Ron Ferguson http://www.fergys.co.uk/ -Original M

Tim, In this case it would be expected to create the back-up OK because the only period is that which denotes the file extension. Quite different from "1.Rosenlof.fdb". It isn't particularly unique, for example Yahoo will only allow one dot in a person's ID. I have said many times on this list, a

During a backup legacy changes the filename from 1.sample to 1 that doesn't seem right to me. I myself don't have any problems because I never use filenames with a period in it. I'm just confirming there is a problem, but it's up to legacy staff to do something about this or not. Evert 2011/3/18 J

 In any MS product back to DOS there are 'forbidden' characters to be used in file names, and since Legacy runs on MS Access, the rule applies, but in Legacy 7.0 manual I couldn't find the list.  Example Period/dot can't be used because that is how URLs are separated and so the computer gets con
