Sweet and thanks. That did it for me. And being able to get that part
working allowed me to finish and successfully test my php script which
basically renames a directory of files from
this
C17AC000.000
C17AC001.000
C17AC002.000
C17AC003.000
C17AC004.000
C17AC005.000
C17AC006.000
to this
C17AC.000
C17AC.001
C17AC.002
C17AC.003
C17AC.004
C17AC.005
C17AC.006
Regards,
Patrick
