Hi,
when I kill a file "lalong.txt"
and I create a new file from program it is in upper case
Is it a problem or an error ?
Code:

                    Chdir "lalong"
                    Print "kill lalong.txt"
                    Kill "lalong.txt"
                    Waitms 100
                    Ff = Freefile()
                    Open "Lalong.txt"for Output As #ff
                   Write #ff , Sentence
                    Close #ff
                    Waitms 100
                    Ff = Freefile()
                    Open "lalong.txt" For Input As #ff
                    Do
                         Lineinput #ff , Stdir       ' read a line  and result in stdir string
                         Wait 1
                    Loop Until Eof(ff) <> 0
                    Close #ff
                    Chdir "\"       'change to the root directory

The FAT only allows upper case. So whatever you name it, it will end up as upper case.
