I adapted a communication program to send files to our printing office.
After transmission, I want the program to rename the file to
<old filename> date/time so we know whether or not a file was sent
and when that occurred.
For that I use the Rename function [rename(fName,refnum,newName)]
and on my computer it works like a train.
But on another computer (the computer that is used for sending it sometimes
does and sometimes does not rename the file that was sent. If I trye to
send it a couple of times, after about 5 attempts it does rename the file. And I _do_ know the function is called. Any ideas?
The file is on a shared volume (using Tops) but if I install my harddisk
to be multi-user, there still is no problem.
The faulty systems is:
- Mac II
- SuperMac b/w screen
- System 5.0 (same as development Mac II)
Any clue is appreciated...
