Since when does the domain name system support _67_ characters in a name? Or do you mean something like "<63-char name>.com"? As far as I know, the restriction to 63 characters for any subdomain name described in RFC 1035 still stands. In any case, the answer is to abbreviate your file names. If your domain name, including all parent domains, comes to more than 31 characters, use Save As the first time you save the domain, rather than Save, and give it a legal filename. ____________________________________________________________________ Chris Buxton cbuxton@menandmice.com Men & Mice http://www.menandmice.com Makers of: QuickDNS Pro
