Can anyone help me?
I need to find the MS-DOS names of several files so that i can reference then in some VBA code. I am having to use their ms dos names as VBA does not seem to like/recongine there windows names. I had no problem with this when i started writing this system however since then i have upgraded to winxp pro, and as obviously microsoft does not want to dwell on the almost prehistoric operating system called MS-DOS, I cant seem to find the MS-DOS Names.
I have tried copying the files to a win98SE computer, however the MS-DOS names will be different on the WinXp pro computer as the hard drive is different and therefore contains different files so the MS-DOS names will be different.
Thanks in advance/anticipation
