Re: Periods in filenames

SQL or Native?
SQL really doesn't like the dots (which is an old carry over technique 
from the S/36.  On the S/36 you could save and restore by "groups".  A 
group had to use the dot.).  The workaround in SQL is to enclose the file 
name in quotes, (not apostrophes; people often say double quotes when they 
mean quotes and not apostrophes).
