DID U KNOW THIS…? An Indian discovered that nobody could create a folder anywhere named as "con" This is something pretty cool...and unbelievable... At Microsoft the Whole Team, including Bill Gates, could not answer why this happened! Try it out yourself...:)

So? This is based on the old DOS Naming Conventions. that still apply today even with Windows. Do you have a problem with this? i_XpUser

If you haven't read the above article, you cannot use the following reserved device names for the name of a file (and folder too): CON, PRN, AUX, NUL, COM1, COM2, COM3, COM4, COM5, COM6, COM7, COM8, COM9, LPT1, LPT2, LPT3, LPT4, LPT5, LPT6, LPT7, LPT8, and LPT9. Tell the Indian he's out of touch with time. i_XpUser

Does the Indian go by the name of Essam7? http://www.winguides.com/forums/showflat.php?Cat=&Board=secwin&Number=134374&page=0&view=collapsed&sb=5&part= Bryan (AKA Report_2)

Bi Bryco now I know where to find you when I need you :-) I wonder if Essam is really an Indian name? i_XpUser

Good grief - - hey - did you know? Some doofus posted utter nonsense here @Computing.Net (something pretty cool...and unbelievable...) Resist the temptation to close your request for help with semantically-null questions like “Can anyone help me?”
