texte = I just ran a test on a database with the creator code ttxt. After making changes to it, I committed it, made more changes, closed it, Fetched it, opened it, it still had the creator code ttxt. I wonder if possibly there is a preference somewhere (maybe hidden deep within the code) that changes the creator on some versions/platforms but not others?Robert Wade CABIN6 Design|[ //\ ||} || ||\| V|http://www.cabin6.com robert@cabin6.comJesse Proudman (Lists Account) wrote:> > The suffix at the end of the file name is not the creator code. > > It's just a suffix. > > You can't see the creator code of a file by looking at it.
