It would seem that if opening a file that doen not exist notepad appends .txt to the filename. Testcase: notepad test.log File "test.log.txt" does not exist Do you want to create it? This means that it is not possible to use notepad to crate a new file with an extention different than txt with parameters.... It might still be acceptable for notepad to try opening a .txt file IF IT exists. It should not offer te create a file with a different extension than specified... Gert
