Im a little confused by your answer let me be a little more specific, I get files from a tool that places them in a temp folder(c:\doc~1\...\...\file.tmp) that i cant control where it puts them. I need to change that file extension from .tmp to .wmf

 

[PHV]

I gave you the VBA instruction to rename a file, so I don't understand your confusion ...

What PHV was trying to tell you is:

[blue]Name[/blue] "c:\doc~1\...\...\file.tmp" [blue]As[/blue] "c:\doc~1\...\...\file.wmf"

Have fun.

Thanks, im using word to format and i noticed that the tool uses the mid$() function to change a file extension is this valid as well?

 

[PHV]
