Hello, the " " (space character) is a special character for UNIX, so you must escape it with a \ (back-slash), like this: mv old\ mail old_mail HTH, Martin -----Original Message----- From: JR [mailto:jruhsam@pcisys.net] Sent: Tuesday, January 23, 2001 2:12 PM To: suse-linux-e@suse.com Subject: [SLE] I can not access certain folders. Hello. I am having trouble with the X Server and so I was planing to do a complete re-install, this was not the only reason for me to do it. I am using the command line at this time and I am having trouble accessing a couple of folders that I names when using KDE. One of the folders is named "old mail" , without the "'s. When I try to access that folder I get the error message of "can not find folder old". Is there a way I can access or rename this folder to copy the information located within it? Thank you in advance. James Ruhsam
