Can I rename a file from VB6?
If so, how?

I found this in the help file.

Name "C:\config.sys" As "C:\config.bak"

Add a reference to the ms scripting runtime by choosing the menu options Project -> References -> select from the list Microsoft Scripting Runtime.
You can rename a file using the following code:
Dim fsFilesystem As Scripting.FileSystemObject
Set fsFilesystem = New Scripting.FileSystemObject
fsFilesystem.MoveFile "c:\test.txt", "c:\success.txt"
Set fsFilesystem = Nothing

Yes, thank you, it works.
Sorry if it was stupid question, but my help file opens the MSDN which give me more problems than info.

Thanx again.

Great question. I just didn't want to take credit for something I didn't know.
