Thank you Siard.

You are right. I should have sent you a screenshot, and did almost. You
would have picked up the problem instantly.

The problem was this. The window of the file manager was too small. on
the name area, it only showed half the line and the spin control was
cut off.

I really appreciate your patience, thank you for that and very sorry
for the noise

Thank you again,
Charlie
