One more thing. If you know that the filename is always eight characters you can do this:<br>
<br>
"???????R.QXD" <br>
<br>
and that should return the files you want in all operating systems (even all the way back to DOS 4.0).
Doing *R.QXD will not work on all operating systems. The Dir$ command is just passed along to the operating system. I think Windows 95 OSR2 and up will support this feature.<br>
