NAME Statement Programming Example
 
This example shows how to use NAME to rename your README.DOC file.
 
CLS    ' Clear screen
'Change README.DOC to READMINE.DOC
NAME "README.DOC" AS "READMINE.DOC"
FILES  ' Display the files in your directory to confirm name change
PRINT
PRINT "README.DOC is now called READMINE.DOC"
PRINT "Press any key to continue"
DO
LOOP WHILE INKEY$ = ""
'Change name back to README.DOC and confirm by displaying files
NAME "READMINE.DOC" AS "README.DOC"
FILES
PRINT
PRINT "README.DOC is back to its original name"
 
  Tip: You can also use NAME to move a file from one directory to
       another. You can move README.DOC to the directory MYDIR
       with the following statement:
 
           NAME "README.DOC" AS "MYDIRREADME.DOC"
