Rename Case

[Beverly Howard]

Recent experience (VFP9) using the FOXPRO RENAME command seems to always
result in the case of alpha characters showing up in lowercase... is
there any way to control this within foxpro?

In case it's related, the filenames in question begin with numeric
digits, so, one suspect would be the windows filename beautification
process.

Thanks in advance,
Beverly Howard

The solution is Win32API:

DECLARE integer MoveFile IN kernel32.dll string ExistingFile, string NewFile

? MoveFile("test.dbf", "TEST.dbf")
? MoveFile("D:\path\test.dbf", "D:\path\TEST.dBf")
* etc.
* Result is 1 ... success, 0 ... failed

P.C.
