Off hand, I can't think of a FoxPro command that will change a directory name, but
1. I imagine you could do it through the Win API or Windows Scripting Host.
2. You can use RUN to use the operating system's REN command.
3. While you can certainly create and run this VFP app from an icon, it seems like a lot of overhead and time spent loading a VFP application to change a directory name.
David.
