Re: Valid characters on one o/s are invalid on another

I ran into a situation (quite a while back) where I had a file on a
DOS machine that had illegal characters in it.  I couldn't rename
or delete it.  I finally got rid of it by going into Basic and deleting
it from there.  Since Basic requires the file name to be in quotes
it accepted it and deleted the file.
