I do a lot of file extension changing & if I have a whole heap to change, I just write a wee batch file which works well. But if I only have a few I just right click & rename, then I get that stupid annoying message. If I didn't want to change it I wouldn't be renaming it. I know it's a security measure in case of mistakes, but it bloody well annoys me. Thanks	45South (4769)
