Hi Martin,

I'm not sure to clearly understand what you are trying to do. I
think it is not a good idea to rename the files while you are
scanning the folder's content. You might possibly rename all the
files before trying to open any one of them.

BTW, I forgot a KillPicture call in the previous sample that I have
posted. The USR IMAGEFILETOPICT returns a handle to a PICT and we
are responsible for the disposing of that handle.
