$=setfileattr($filename,getfileattr($filename)-1)

I tried your suggestion, did not work. Is there something missing in the second line?

I tried this on Win98 - you running NT ?

What version kix ?

-Shawn

?"ERROR @ERROR : @SERROR"

after the setfileattr() line ?

Access is denied ?

Something else ?

Take a look at our topic on the beta forum
http://kixtart.org/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic&f=3&t=000014
which handles about timings problem between flushing output and setting file
attributes.
greetings.

Thanks for the pointer... I solved the problem of setting attributes on files, am on to other things now..
