Sorry, Leon, I'm not sure what you're saying. Is the script working now,
either with or without the single quotes?
Did you check to make sure that the file name and path name were exactly
correct? Were they both correct?
I'm sorry to have mentioned the single quotes; they are probably only going
to be necessary if you are trying to execute a VBScript in the VBScript
engine or something like that. In your case, you are just renaming a file so
the single quotes shouldn't be needed.

Hi Scot,
the result of Rhino's build script without single quotes is same with
mine.
Anyway, the old.name file will disappear after execution.
Best regards,
Leon

Question, why are you including single quotes withing the double

<property name="old.name" value="'c:\Documents and

<property name="new.name" value="'c:\Documents and
Settings\Administrator\Desktop\Bi.jar'" description="The new name of

I'm not sure of the behavior doing that, but I am fairly confident
this
should be sufficient:
<property name="old.name" value="c:\Documents and
Settings\Administrator\Desktop\bi.jar" description="The old name of
the file."/>
<property name="new.name" value="c:\Documents and
Settings\Administrator\Desktop\Bi.jar" description="The new name of
the file."/>
