      DeleteFile will delete a file. MoveFile will move it. MoveFileEx does exist only for the NT stream, but MoveFile is fine. Christian Graus - Microsoft MVP - C++

        [rename]
        NUL=C:\\temp\\file1.exe
        NUL=C:\\foo\\file2.exe

        and so on. You can\'t use WritePrivateProfileString() because the second NUL line would replace the first. You need to read the whole file in,modify it, and write it back out
