Best to avoid all punctuation characters other than a '.' or '-' in the middle of a file name (never use a '-' as the first character). In theory the only character you must avoid in a file name is '/', but in practice almost every other punctuation character than '.' and '-' has the potential to make things difficult. That said a '~' is OK as long as it's not the first character in a name, a '+' is probably OK and a ',' has looking like a '.' as it's biggest problem. -- My Main Blog http://etbe.coker.com.au/ My Documents Blog http://doc.coker.com.au/
