I don't know about WinME, but in Win98 (probably the same), you'd lauch Windows Explorer then click on View in the menu bar. At the bottom of the View menu is Folder Options, click that. When the Folder Options dialog box opens, click the View tab at the top of the box. The 5th or 6th option down is a check box that says "Hide file extensions for known file types." Uncheck that box and click the OK button. You should now be able to see all your file extensions. Why Mickeysoft desided to hide file extensions as a default is beyond me. Guess they didn't want to confuse all us stoopid users.
