Renaming A File

[awitt]

First off, I know this is a javascript forum, not a Java forum, however, I never seem to get any responses when I post on the Java forum. So, because of a deadline, I decided to post here in the hopes that someone may be able to help.Does anyone see a reason this won't work?

import java.io.File;public class scan{	public static void main(String[] args)	{		File myDir = new File("C:\\Documents and Settings\\vid\\Desktop\\testfolder");		String[] files = myDir.list();		final int maxLength = 35;		int incrementalNumber = 0;		        //for (String file : files)        for (int i = 0; i < files.length; i++)        {        	String fileName = files[i].toString();System.out.println("fileName: " + fileName);        	        	if(fileName.length() > maxLength)        	{        		File oldfile = new File(fileName);        		        		String newFileName = fileName.substring(0, 28);        		String extension = fileName.substring(fileName.length() - 4,         				fileName.length());        		newFileName += incrementalNumber + extension;System.out.println("newFileName: " + newFileName);        		        		File newFile = new File(newFileName);        		System.out.println( oldfile.renameTo(newFile) ); // **returns false every time**        		incrementalNumber++;        	}			System.out.println("---------------------------");        }	}}

All the files are readable and there are no other files in that directory with the same name as the new one. I don't know why or how this is not working, and I do not know how I could go about debugging or testing to find out either. Any help would be much appreciated.

What kind of an output do you get from all those System.out.println calls?
