I don't think you understand... the '.c#' file extension to which you refer throughout your mail _does not exist_. The .net standards do not specify a file extension for c# source files, although ECMA-334 says this: 'The source code for a C# program is typically stored in one or more text files with a file extension of .cs' While some implementors should not require '.cs', nobody uses '.c#', as that would be very inconvenient. There is therefore no issue. You may wish to refer to ECMA-334/335 or some other source of information on .NET and C#. I do not recommend that you start using a '.c#' file extension as it might cause problems similar to those you describe. HTH -- Benjamin Peterson [EMAIL PROTECTED]
