Hi,
>The following command will successfully copy a file to the reserved device
>name 'aux' on the C:\
>drive:
>
>copy source \\.\C:\aux
>
I did that using the DOS prompt (using a plain text file as source). Then,
opening Windows Explorer, I tried opening the properties window by
right-clicking the aux file... however, this caused explorer to crash.
I tested this issue on two systems running Windows 2000 Professional. I
haven't been able to test it on any other versions of Windows. Anybody else
noticed this?
regards,
Lise
