I know the path and first and last part of the filename.
Example filename: A01-30420.jpg
I have the A01- and the .jpeg. The ##### portion could be anything, but always numeric (sofar).
The A01 is unique, i.e. there will only be one file of A01-#####.jpg
I'm using fileExists object to confirm a file exists when I have the full filename but havn't been able to figure out how to get the full filename when I only have a partial.
I could rename the files, i.e. drop the -##### but I'd have to do that everytime I get new ones so I'd like to work with the original filename if at all possible.
Thanks in advance

Think you could just get all of the files:
dir=server.MapPath(somedir)
Set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set files = fso.GetFolder(dir)
then just use a loop to look for it...
i think you could even have somedir be C:\foo.* but i am not 100% sure on that
Thanks Tron.
I did sort of a stopgap using basically what you described in an asp page to permanently rename and then I can look for the name directly.
Maybe next time I get a bunch I'll rethink/redo :-))
